Who said mega money?
Me, and despite Novas with brown seats doing grands and grands some people like Generation won't admit what is obviously going to happen to Corsa GSis.
I'm absolutely distraught mine is in bits just now, worst thing I ever did taking it apart. Like all the best plans.
Gone off the full restore idea on mine, now I just want to get the dodgy rear arch sorted and leave it at that, nice tidy original car rather than a fully mint 'show car'.
Get yours back together, they are simple enough

That's the one for me, don't have the time and don't enjoy the hours in the garage like I used to.

Bargain. 5 years ago, in 5 years time they were going to be with mega money.
Who said mega money? Considering I bought one 3 years ago for £300, then the current one 18 months ago for £1300, this one is on £2000 with 9 days to go.
No pattern I can see
Loads of people over the years have. One of them being Ian, can't disagree with him though, can you

I disagree with his timescale on values but not that they are more valuable than they where 5 years ago no.
Maybe you are just gutted you ploughed thousands in to old Corsas that ended up being worth fuck all?

Paid 750 for my grey one off the allcorsa forum a couple of years back, spent a few quid on it and sold it for 2k a year later. Il never sell my red GSI tho, of the GSIs I've owned this ones by far the best conditioned of them all in terms of rust. Paints shot but a paint jobs easy enough to get sorted. Your white one Ian will fetch a serious figure in years to come I think, not many white ones about.

They were all newer than gsi's. Not gutted at all, wouldn't say worthless got thousands back for last one, and already 1300 ish back for this one so far, which paid for new car and some goodies too
It's ok. You're more than welcome to direct your anger at me, and just disagree with me on a 1-2-1 basis. I don't mind

I have had plenty of offers over that on mine so it could well just be the going rate.

Two bids retracted, one for 2950 and the other 4100
Guy having gone in at 4100 is the current winner and he's above 2100 because the top two bids are his.

Didn't realise they where that cheap either, it's good all second hand cars are sold on the insurance book value
Now to go and find myself a £150 MK2 Escort RS2000!

£2200 and the top two bids are the same person meaning they'd gone more but no one bid against.
