ive got a corsa 1.2 8v, its my first car and ive had it nearly 2 years now and i love it to bits apart from being extremely bored of it.
i want something quicker but im just generally bored of it, the colour, the wheels, the engine...
the trouble is i havnt got a lot of money due to commitments/bills, i want to sell the car as it as for as much as i can get, then get something quicker, maybe another corsa. i could survive without a car for a while (i live around the corner from work) but i couldnt really afford to put any more than a few hundred quid to the money il get for mine. ive got a moped i can sell for about 400 too but having trouble getting rid at this time of year.
Sooo... should i sell mine then look and wait until something comes along, or should i just keep this? what do you people think?
this is what iwould be selling...
the wheels are satin black now, if that changes anything 
((sorry if this is in the wrong place, if so could somebody move it to the right place, cheers))

So at most you would have about £1500 at most to spend if you sold yours, plus the ped and a few hundred quid. To be honest you would be best keeping it and just leaving it, save your pennies and wait till you have a decent amount to buy something else. Or thats what i'd do anyway.

You could probably find a Corsa Sport or Nova GTE or something but it may not be in the best condition. Plus if your bored of this corsa would you not get bored of another?

I'd put the Corsa back to standard and put it up for sale for £1000.
Then sell the ped and save up some money. Pick up a cheap Corsa Sport. Sorted!
