I think the time has come to move on and sell my Corsa. I am located in Llandudno (40 mins from Chester).
I'm looking into buying an old style mini cooper, but would be interested in a swap with another corsa/car?
1.6 16v Corsa sport (Flame Red)
1999 S reg
Tax'd till: 31/05/08
MOT untill december 08.
70,789 miles
c/l,e/w,pas,air con,electric heated mirrors
In excellent condition ,paint work is very good for its age. The car is still a very bright red when polished. There is a small scratch on the rear of the car, above the left mudflap (hardly noticable!).
There are 2-3 stonechips on the bonnet, but it is to be expected! It has been washed at least once every week since i've owned it and been regularly polished and waxed.
Mechanically the car is 100% & drives very well.
Last month quite a lot of money was spent on the car (around £700)
The headgasket went on it last month, and I was close to putting a new engine inside, but ended up buying all new parts. Including;
Water pump, Timing belt kit, Thermostats, Headgasket set, Head bolt set, all new valves, Oil filter & change. Also the head was skimmed (Pic below)
After the work was done, The middlebox then died, so i've also had a new centre box put on.
Also has had new brake pads (red dot) and clutch around 4000 miles ago.
Arches and bumpers have all been resprayed "rover gunmetal grey"
Richbrook gear knob and alcantara gaiters with red stitching
Depo Headlights & South African rear lights (not arrived yet)
Lowered 60mm on Gmax springs
5 Spoke Tigra alloys with new tyres all round (400/500 miles ago) [choice of 3 spoke alloys or the tigra alloys]
Inside of the car is VERY clean, but i like to have a clean car
If you were at Trax you would of seen the car in the flesh.
To me this car is worth around £2000, but will happily take £1900 for it. You may think it's a high price, but with all the work thats gone into it last month, i think it's bargain.
Willing to swap too.... what have you got?
Anymore questions please feel free to ask
