I have owned my Corsa now for over a year and have just put down a deposit on a megane sport trophy
I have put alot of time and effort into the car and was wondering if anyone could give me a guide on how much to advertise it for ... Here is the project thread

It's got 10 month mot , 4 month tax 66k
Cheers

Tbh sean as always your better of splitting bits and turning some bits to standard you may make some money on! Id say about £1500 Tops if you dont break it because corsa's are just so cheap! But you know your going to get the smart one, "Er its worth what someones willing to pay for it"! Its a shame mate, such a lovely looking car!

Looks like a very clean car and you obvioulsy have a price in mind so just put it up for that.
If you find the right buyer then it will go.

Think it would break my heart to break it lol but if I did I think it would be weird having a near standard Corsa with a cage as that thing is never comin out

i know mines a heap compared to that but on my 1.6 sport, the bodyworks decent, its a 1999, had 80k on, long MOT and some tax. dropped 60mm on jamex kit, decat with ss exhaust, all old mot's, only bad point worth mentioning is its had alot of owners...
... i paid £400
i think in that nick £1500 is quite decent, dont get too greedy as it'll take forever to sell

£1500 tops imo
looks very smart though. Would be worth a touch more and more desireable with a c20xe lump fitted.
Oh and 'its a genuine sport with 66k' means feck all imo as it doesnt have the original lump still in situe

Xe more desireable like ? Sits with an xe all day long and is more reliable IMO ... Good price for yours at 400 but I have got things for nothing that are worth money but does that mean they Are worth nothing ?

And a 16 with leaky stem seals is worth more like as most of them have ?

I paid £400 for my sport.
Put an XE in it, got some of it painted and sold it on for £1900 (I took a part ex but when that sold that was my total)
Stick it up at £2000 see what offers your get.

Yes ano and I appreciate that ... Was just wanting a rough guide on how much to advertise but for 1500 I would rather let it sit in a garage and do nothing .... I just don't accept the fact that what someone pays for something is what it's worth ... Like I said I have got stuff for nothing but doesn't mean it's worth nothing

£2000 is fairly optimistic although there's no harm advertising it at that and taking offers.
Just don't be offended when you get offered less. It's worth what someone pays.

Have sold plenty of cars mate and know what your talkin about ... Nothing wrong with trying my luck at 2500 ... I will have to bide my time to get it sold for what I want
