2004 - 04 Corsa C 1.8 SRi
78k
10 month MOT
5 month tax
Ultra Blue, fully color coded, anthracite Sri wheels, lowered 40mm, piper exhaust, full heated leather interior, cruise control air con etc.
Looking by auto trader/piston heads they are doing about £2.5k to £3k, but thats without leather.
Any ideas?

Yeah Marty. Off to go meet him in the morning to swap if all is good.
Cheers John, is is worth every penny, if I stripped all the mods off it I'd get around £1200 so thy would mean the car as standard I'd need to get just £1800 for it to make the £3k I want. Some of the ones up to £2k are right dogs.

Any skoda VRS is a good buy. My dad has previously had a mk1 fabia and octavia VRS which were both quality. I'd have either one anyday.

I like them with Audi wheels on then a little tuning would make th a winner. If I had the spare cash I'd have one.

Yeah the yellows fade bad. Interiors are a bit of a let down really, comfy, just not nice looking.
I like subtle, dropped 40mm on Octavia vrs 17's. Look smart as.

I don't think it'll be easy getting 3k for that corsa plus you don't know if its got any hidden faults, I would lower the 106's price a bit

Didn't meet him, he said he was too tired. But going to give it a miss now anyway, logbooks not in his name, he has no service history at all and only 1 key.
106 is staying for a while, untill you come buy it Matty

Agreed.
I would never do a straight swap for a car that i would be wanting to sell straight away. Just lower the price or wait, if it's priced right it will sell

Maybe it wouldnt of been as easy to sell then judging by those things. Ah well, at least you have more fun for a while
