tbh milage these days isnt that much of a deal engine can pull 200k as long as there looked after
why you selling? put a bigger engine in and get a few more years out of it

thinking about a 2ltr but i know me mates have had them and i just want a car that i can jump in and go !! kind of like wot i have now !! with a valver me mates seem to break all the time and that wud annoy the hell out of !! then with it only been an 8 valve i can imagine putting a 1.6 16valve or sumthing wud be a pain in the arse for the wiring !! to be honest there is nowt wrong with this engine i may just re con it for bout 400 quid or so and i can get a re spray for about 500.00 so therefore that to me wud be a new car for about a grand

I like your car lots mate.
You should keep it imo.....2l
I reckon your get around 3k for it... its tastefull enough for the mods not to lose it too much value.
Keep it!!

If your going to sell it in order to buy another car with a plan to modify , why bother?
Youve got a great base there to make a really top corsa.. engine mods if they are well done dont have to be unreliable.
I your gonna buy something much quicker/better than a corsa then fair enough. You waste so much less money if you buy a nice car to start with instead of buying cheaper and modifying.
Just dont sell it then go and buy a feking saxo or something
