Awesome GSi's mate. I had a Smoke Grey H plate 2wd GSi2000 as a company car back when they were new, loved every minute of it. Mate of mine had a Diamond Black one with the beige trim, mega rare back in the day.

Keep up the good work.

As a massive saph fan I love GSI's too! Totally no prejudice against other marques when they are retro cool 90's performance motors! Plenty of my mates had GSI's when I was growing up, sadly I could never afford one at the time or I would've deffo owned one

Love the GSi and Turbo Cavs, looked for one a few years back but could only find a Calibra turbo which only lasted about 6 months, never got on with it.

custom made "Swindon syle" rocker cover

finally got round to finishing my xe cover
pretty cool paint tbh but you need a tidy heat gun to get the effect
leaving it to dry on its own is a no no works better if you help it with heat :thumb:
just waiting on custom plug cover and chrome bolts

Love them.

Have had 3 over the years and was fortunate to have the press car GSI estate a few years back after the Cav's.

Funny really, was only looking to see last night if there were any around to buy as my new daily!

Getting rare cars by the looks!
