Default immaculate vauxhall corsa gsi-standard and original

you really dont see examples like this nowadays....

very original car,i would say its never been painted by the look of it.only 61000 miles from new with full service history.
finished in bright red with red/black cloth sport interior,vauxhall cd player,standard alloys with excellent tyres.
drives like its just come out of the factory-a real time warp car.just been taxed and long mot so ready to enjoy-new battery and egr valve just fitted

only just landed so ill get some nice pics in the sun tomorrow.

price- £2395

p/x may be considered,delivery is possible by negotiation-viewing strongly reccomended.

lookin forward to seeing pics. Not my fav car ever but sounds like a cracking example - as you said, dont see standard, tidy ones anymore, most have rotted away or been badly modded!!

I don't generally like Corsa's, but always thought these were a tidy looking little car, don't see many at all these days!

Seems weird to be describing a corsa as a timewarp car as they still seem so recent, but in reality thats 15 years old now, time flies!

Amazing condition by the looks of it

see your point-poor choice of phrase.
but it does look like its 1/2 years old and not 15...and drives like it too.

Cool pics. I'd remove the non std and NASTY Nova style Gsi badges from the side Jay.

really tempted! If it was Caribic blue (thats what I had) or white. I would be buying that!

Looks in great condition!

Mine was a 1994 L reg and had the nicer non airbag wheel. I LOVED THAT CAR!

Looks very original and clean that. Sort of car that should belong to enthusiast and be kept standard I think!

I had one of these. Bought it in 1997, was only 3 years old! Mine had the non airbag wheel too. It was a cool little car! Made a great noise with a Pipercross on it!



Brings back the memories this does! Especially as this one is so mint! If it was gunmetal grey.........

No mate, I dont think it is a poor choice of phrase at all, just seems weird it being applied to a corsa as I think of them as fairly new cars, but its 15 years old so to find one so tidy really is a bit of a timewarp.

Im amazed it is still red.

That colour is normally referred to in vauxhall circles as "flame pink" cause its so famous for fading.

Again, shows what a well looked after car it is that it hasnt done, must have been garaged most of its life I guess!

Saw this on pistonheads the other day, very nice car!

Good luck with the sale mate
