Stick a LET in, car would be complete then! And imo you could get 4.5k for with a let no problem.

get a coin, flip it, soon as you see what it lands on, you know whether you actually wanted to keep/sell it, so keep/sell it.

whats the point in spending 1.5k+ on a conversion to sell it and maybe add only a few hundred quid more on the value?

Its 50/50 mate
I had the same problem, i had somone offer me £7000 for my Corsa a few years back.
I turned it down.
You need to think what you want out of your car......
Do you want a new car?
Are you happy with how the car looks but want soming faster?
What would you buy with the money IF you sold it?
Loads of things you need to think about. Reason why i did not was the car was perfect and how i wanted it; an could not see it go just to have x amount of pounds in the bank. plus I wanted to move onto an alot faster car BUT did not need the money from the sale to do this. So kept the V6 and started the new project.

I dont really need a car everyday to be honest. For uni i get the train. I do want something fast but either an XE/LET/V6 in in will satisfy me.
Dont get me wrong, i love it to bits but recently its had a few problems and costing me a fair few pounds.
I'll have a word with my old man tomorrow to see what he thinks, cheers for your input though mate. Given me a few more things to consider

Exactly ! Not many people seem to be grasping the idea of a modded car here

Its really tough the only thing that would be against me keeping it and putting a let/xe in it would be that you wouldnt be able to enjoy it fully with it been so low etc.
Would maybe consider selling it for a good price and using some of the money for a ready built xe let corsa.
However with the car been built buy yourself and been exactly how you want it its a shame to sell up

if your gonna sell it when you get the company car.. . .why not get the most amount possible now? 4.5k is alot of money for a corsa! but then again look at the pictures its looks worth it!
