Who was it on here that had one?

Came across this one on PH and thought i'd take a look at the insurance.

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/170285.htm

It would be cheaper than insuring my Corsa through Admiral - A bit gutting

I do actually prefer the SRi Turbo to the GSi, only because they're a bit rarer and i'm a bit sad

Did the IC you can see on that black Astra come standard?

I want

Interior is different, the body kit is different, the wheels are different, the gsi is much nicer imo.

It is very nice, Think the Corsa will be making way for one of these eventually - Come renewal

Brentacre couldn't quote for one sensibly, otherwise I would probably be on my way to get it

I was doing the exact same this morning! Got a quote for a GSI and it was £250 cheaper than the corsa! Definately going to be getting a GSI now. Just got to save a few pennies

The GSi gets half leather Recaro's, not cloth "sports" seats found in all the other SRi's.

The SRi ones are different in the 1.8 and 2 litre though, only the Turbo and some 2.2s had the good seats.

The 1.8s and 2 litres have a horrible red/black pattern.

All the 2002- models have the same cloth pattern as the SRiT, but only the SRiT and some 2.2s had the pull out leg support thingys.

I just don't like the pattern on the GSi seats TBH.
