be slightly quicker but im not to keen myself on GSi's they have a very old shell and unless they have been looked after you could buy one with problems - like b'pillar cracking etc.

1.6 16v sports are around 6 bhp less but have a nicer newer shell and a nicer interior IMO! - 6bhp is fuck all tbh - i have been told that if you put them up agaisnt each other and they were totally standard it would be the person with the cleanest recation/changing gear time that would win

unsure fella but i cannot see it weighing to much...

i just think Sport's are the luxuray model and bumpers (if required GSi) can be added to them.

Corsa Gsi's have the same engines as 1.6 16v Sports! bar the L reg GSi. It's not 6bhp difference. The X16 has 106bhp and the C16 (L reg) has 109bhp.

yes monester - R Reg (98 i think)

I agree "slammed_corsa" but in my experince with my old car and mates cars - they went on older versions due to the time they have been on the roads
