£2k for Monty?! flol:

Yes the issue is that everybody wants everything for nothing which fcuks me off - I know £1800 on mod terms isn't a lot, but on a Corsa it is. £2500 for a vgc XE Corsa isn't overpriced imo - it's all been done properly, it's declared, correct poundage decent suspension set up etc that so many people cut corners on!

£2.5k is fair if you ask me, you see some dodgy ones going for £2k

Cheers Jim I actually quite like the wheels! I nearly had them refurbed for a proper sleeper look tbh.

New wheels can be the new owners touch

^ Hopefully it will sell then! Had it up at £2.5k on the CS stand at PVS and all I had was comments about how it was massively overpriced or I'd watch people wander over to look at the asking price then laugh and walk off.

If people realised the money ploughed into this and the spec (which imo isn't bad!) then I'd hope £2.5k could be justified!

I've put it up for £1800 because of the fact that it has these tracking issues atm - as I say in the ad, the garage weren't sure exactly why it's playing up, but seeing as when it didn't have any issues without the camber bolts fitted, I can't see why it won't be ok with them removed and re-tracked - I don't have the time to do that though!

Anybody who read the signs would have - it only said "Corsa B Vegas C20XE For Sale £2500" lol. I should have taken a spec list tbh.

Just goes to show I didn't look at the sign in the window I thought it just said for sale and the price for some reason...they might have been illiterate though lol. Either way good luck with the sale Rich. Hopefully it goes to a good home that looks after as well as you and Phil have
