Does the carcoon have some sort of tyre inflator system to stop them from going flat?

Thanks Ian,

No inflator but it does have a built in trickle charger for the battery.

Oh well, at least it keeps the battery conditioned. Pulled my Corsa GSi out of the garage on Saturday after 4 or 5 months and all the tyres where suitably flat, looks like there isn't a solution to that unless the cars are kept off there wheels I guess!

Love the cover, that is very cool. May i ask, what do you do out in Dubai?

Good to see an update with this. Can't get over how clean this thing looked when I saw it. Bet you can't wait to get back to work on it

I'm surprised this car came with an E16, thought it would of been a C16SE being a late one.

Thanks mate - Hope things are well with you and the new pad!
The later L reg cars were the left overs K's which were not sold so the engines found in them are a mixed bag of E/C16's
If you have a look at this thread it gives you link to a spread sheet with details of most of the 15 L reg GSi's (Engines / colours etc)

Things are very well thanks apart from not having anywhere at home to store a nova

That's interesting to know. I hope one day I'll own an L reg GSi but in the meantime I'll just follow this and be very jealous of it.
