    Default Stunning corsa gsi turbo c20let.

    Hi all,

    The time has come for a friend of mine to sell his corsa..... Im sure some of you may have seen his recent ad's or seen the car at shows in the past. Imo this is a very well built subtle car which If I had the cash Id buy myself! Please contact Charlie under the username (GSI160) for any more details. Please genuine enquires only, Thanks, Nick.




    I am thinking about selling may Corsa GSI Turbo.
    So here goes:

    Colour: Carabic blue with Rage Extreme blue metal fleck.
    I am the second owner from new.
    86000 miles
    HPI clear No finance owing on it. (Never bumped)
    There is a service history for the car whilst it has had the turbo engine installed.
    There is 6 months road Tax on it.
    There is 8 months MOT left on it.

    The Car was originally a genuine GSI had the following extra factory options from new:
    Electric Windows,
    Electric Mirrors,
    Central Locking,
    Tilt and slide sunroof (now electric),

    This car is registered as a 2.0L 16V on the log book.
    I have owned this car since November 2002 (Coming up for 7 years.)
    Total Vauxhall featured in December 2007 issue.

    Since I have owned the car it has undergone the following modifications listed below including a full bare shell respray.

    The car has been built to the highest standards with a lot of attention to detail.
    I have used it as my every day car as well as a show car; this has proved that it is very reliable.
    There are general small stone chips etc from general use etc I am not advertising this as concourse.





    I have all the original documentation manuals etc and a massive stack of bills and receipts and all the mot certificates whilst I have owned it.

    Please only contact me if you are serious about owning my pride and joy and please price the insurance before you waste your own time as well as mine.
    Strictly no dreamers or test pilots.

    Please note this is not your usual thrown together conversion on a driveway.

    The pictures for this advert were from the Mag photo shoot,
    The car hasn't changed much since then but may not be just as clean etc!!!As its been in daily use for nearly two years since then.

    Thanks for looking.
