just wondered if there was any differences on the standard corsa shells, strength etc between models like 1.2 ls and sport/sri's or is it all cosmetic? im want to build a cheap 2.0 with all the looks of a sport etc

They're all the same, give or take a few things on the ones from 97 onwards

Diesel Shell is the most strongest apparently, stengthened more for diesel power

They're not identical - the chassis legs differ but this doesn't affect overall strength. I think there were some revisions in 1997 to sort the B pillar issue but I'm not sure what.

You want to retain all the seats?
