Right here are the options....
Spend 2k on kitting the corsa up, Full bodykit / Lowered / Alarm etc...
Or get a Mk4 2002 Astra GSi costing me an extra £7500 ish
Opinions and give your reasons

I'd stick with corsa for a while, you only had it 6 months and £14k it alot to finance Darren

Well it's either kitted up slow car, or factory kitted up relatively quick car...
Although if I you can get insured on an Astra GSi then surely you could buy lots of other cars for the money you're talking...

daz, id finish paying off the car, but keep it as is.. then get the astra after, coz the astras will have come down more.. and you will probs get 5K for your corsa then

ifyou do get 1 my advice would be dont buy a brand new 1, try and get it 6-12 months old then will be alot cheaper than brand new.

eah your right I have got my heart set on it
The only thing is if I get the astra I will only have £150 a month to live on - I have taken into consideration Rent/Petrol/Other loans etc...
Do you think £150 is enough to live on for a month??

depends how comfortably you want to live doesnt it really
we can all account for the basics but what about if somethin big comes up and you cant fund it????
its all about money really so the ultimate choice lays in ure hands...we can all say which we prefer but we arnt payin for it are we
