I'm thinking of selling my car, how much do you think I could get for it?
White Corsa B, '94 L reg 1.4 LS 5dr,
100k miles
Sony xplode cd head unit
PiperX panel filter
TSW Apex 17" alloys
Chrome M3 manual ajust exterior mirrors
ProAudio 350W 6x9's in parcel shelf
Most of the stuff will be put back to standard selling, I'm most likely just gonna sell it back on bog standard, how much ya think I could get for it? £1500? more? less? I'm thinking of geting an Astra G next and I have have heard I can get 51 reg for about £3 n a half grand! is that accurate or miles out?

Its 10 years old and not even good model, I picked up a R reg 1.2 VW Polo for the Mrs for £400 a while ago, and sold my 94L GSi with 60k miles 3 years ago for £2200 - its called depreciation

Its worth more standard. You did well with the 205. I know someone rallys one regularly picks them up for bits, GTis for £300 etc. Tatty ones admittedly.

Well he was obviously stupid!
I personally wouldnt give you any more than £400/£500 for a L reg £100kmile 1.4ls corsa - but then I know I can do alot better for the same money - your going to get as much as someones willing to pay for it, stick up for sale and maybe some mong will give you the asking price...u never know

chav mods?! :O I can stick it all back to standard quite quickly, only thing is i threw out my old mirrors! or at least I put 'em somewhere I can't remember! lol
seems like I might as well just hang on to it and never sell it if its worth £600, 2 weeks wages! but then again you guys all know your corsas back to front and exactly what ther worth, if I sell it to somebody who hasn't a clue really then they wouldn't know any better as I've seen a K reg corsa in a 2nd hand dealers wi price of £1200 in the window of it, twas the 1 lite 3 cilider aswell! so mines got better access to the back being 3 door so ya don't wrek ya seats, its newer, bigger engine etc, would have thought it would go for more!

it more a case of not many people wanting to buy them any more, that makes the price low.
think what u can get these days and remember corsa B is a ten year old design now.....a whole decade
