Quick question, will be listed on Ebay tomorrow for a rather quick sale, what do you think the value of my corsa should be set at?

i.e the max i'd be lucky to get but also the min i should take for it.

basics -
1.4sri
Wide kitted - resprayed in metallic panther black.
78k miles
1994 plate
Alot of work
7months Mot
6months Tax

Pics in garage

Just trying to work out the prices these days

Limited market TBH, so to sell quickly you're looking at £1200 at the most, as it's just a 13 year old Corsa SRi at the end of the day

My L reg SRi sold for about £650, but it didn't have new paint, wheels or an MOT when I sold it

Hard to say, its worth whatever anyones willing to pay really, someone could fall in love with it, not give a fuck about age etc and pay 1800, someone could bid up to max of 800 cause there seeing it as a 13 year old car.

the only thing that will bump the price up mate to be fair is the low milage. if im honest i'd say you'll be lucky if you get £800 for it. my 1st corsa was like urs, wide kit (combat arches) civic sides, fully smoothed in and reprayed 18s, the lot. i spent over £5000 on modifying alone and i sold it for a measly £1300 bout 18months ago. was gutted but as everyone has said its such a limited market and half the people that do want it, cant afford it. id never do it again its a complete waste of money. anyway, best of luck with the sale mate.

I know what needs doing to the car, but why spend more on it to 'finish it' when i won't get anything more in return.
