Avoid it at all costs. It's a GSI ringed to be a LC.

This was the subject of a thread in the ABS forum. One of the guys went to look at it and it's rotten to the core. The rear suspension/drivetrain is all standard GSI. And it's 'stolen/recovered, the VIN plates have been cut out and replaced with 'another' one and all the ID's, (build number referrences), have been removed. (Slam plates, build plaques etc.)

It's most likely been nicked, ringed and thrashed to within an inch of it's life.

LC/LO's didn't make an appearance till 'H' plate so this is one very dodgy motor!!!
