corsa C sxi
1.2 16V silver
genuine just less than 40k
fairly long test and fair few month tax
trade seller
06 reg!
engine seemed fine but you could tell it'd been stood for a bit, could probably benefit from a service if your fussy
all budget tyres had loads of tread although the n/s/f had a mark on the side wall. wheels a bit scuffed but otherwise a fine little motor
the elderly chap at the end of my street has sadly had to scrap his 1998 escort 1.6 that he's had from new. it had only had battery, centre and back box and two front tyres in its whole life. it only had 35k when it went for scrap the other day...
poor bloke was heartbroken and he's set me the challenge of finding him a car.
iv came across the above C. had a bit haggle and he's put a deposit down...
i have little experience of buying cars over the 2+k mark but i just wondered what YOU think it's worth and il confirm the agreed price in a moment...

Why have you posted a load of 5k ones if you've got it for what it was worth?

That's not what they are going for, that's what a couple of dreamers have them advertised for on ebay.
They are going for what you paid.

PH Link
PH Link (1.4 Sri comparassion)
PH Link - Twin port
Anyone paying £3.5k - 4k for them is getting ripped off.

all your ebay links are dealers, everyone knows dealers will be more expensive no matter what the car, you should gauge it on private sales to get a better idea of what they are worth in the market.
Edit: Think friend paid about 2.5k for his with around 30-50k. So John-D is on the money imo
