just wrote out a thread for astra-sport so thought i would paste in here aswell:
After finally selling my corsa and looking round for a week or so i bought a GSi on sunday and pic it up this coming sunday
Heres a few pics:
as you can see its got full black heated leather, dump valve and a bastuck exhaust, and irmy grille!
Im soooooooo chuffed with it, its perfect for me as i would have done the grille dump valve and zorst anyway so this way saves me time and money
Smoked rear lights and side repeaters and a GSi badge for the back (after de badgeing otheres) will be on soon!
Im still thinking whether to go for FK coilovers or just eibach 30mm springs!
then the plan is anthracite rims for a while as might need 2 new tyres by the end of winter!
Oh yeh and i just bought this private numberplate which im beyond chuffed about

 Full leather
This had always put me off the GSi as i think 1/2 leather is about as attractive as vibs in a swimsuit.
Coupe's (linea rossa esp.) got much better interiors!
But yours looks sweeeeeeeeeeeet
Cant wait and deffor keep those wheels and paint em anthra as per ure other post

very nice, astra gsi's are quite common up here, but most of them are blue.
i've never actually seen a silver gsi on the road.
will look nice lowered with the anthra wheels. nice seats too!

Nah dont waste any time was doing my head in not having a car!
when i was looking at SRis i was wanting a silver one but then when i decided to get a GSi i was after an arden blue one, but went off them as i didnt think i could live with the colour and i would get bored!
i love the silver and with the interior it works soooooo well and very subtle!
I love the interior i thought the full black was abit boring untill i saw it in the flesh and its awesome, and heated aswell

I still love the corsa but jsut time to move on, its gone to a good home by the sounds of it though
yes the plate is expensive but after having a private plate i like to have one as makes the car mine abit more
and i got any extra £500 on the price of the corsa for the M9 plate so that kinda makes it £499 in my eyes
