On other hand though looks really nice!
But 2 things i noticed.
1) Don't Gsi/Sport all come with airbags? The steering wheel looks like a non-airbag (Not 100% though)
2) and this is reallllllly picky, but where the gear stick is, i can't recall any of the Gsi/Sort trim having that gap in there either, as my sport doesn't have it but my dads LS corsa does...
Prob just depends what you asked for at the dealership though....

Airbags wernt standard on GSi's at all mate, many dont have them
the void in the centre console is only there if you have no airbag, as thats where the airbag control gear goes in airbag model corsas.

Ah right, i though cause they were the "Sport" version that they all did as standard, ah so glad that's been put in order as iv'e always wondered why my car aint got the gap in the centre, not that i care but id find it quite useful 2bh, would it be possible to swap them even though i have an airbag or it not poss?

The gap is there if you don't have an airbag. On later cars the airbag control module is under there.

what ever it is, its in a right state and not worth chasing up just for the colour

Define right state? I don't see anything too bad, if that mileage is genuine it should drive very nice. The cosmetic bits would be sorted if you were doing a 15 year body overhaul anyway, which it will probably need.

A slight exaggeration although admit it, if it werent for the colour it would be another gsi with missing trim, rust and a knackered door

Bodywork doesnt look that bad, the missing skirt is about 30 quid from Vauxhall, get a rust free boot painted and it would look a hundred times better.. Not a lo of money to put it right..
