As some of you will know my Orange Combo met up with a Kawasaki mule which messed up the front end!

The insurance has paid out a decent amount of money, enought to be able to get a Corsa C Combo. I could fix up the Orange combo and make it even better but it will only ever be an R reg Combo with no power steering etc that I paid £245 for. However I have done a lot to it and it would be a shame to break it.
So the question is break and buy Combo C or carry on with my combo?

Get rid. Why put money into a 10year old basic combo, when you could have a newer combo, and within time, do similar mods.

Thats what i'm thinking.
I'm also toying with the idea of Mercedes Vito's as well. But they are older vans for the same money as a Corsa C.

Orange to get noticed for future business, think of the top companies and the colours they use!
Done up? well hardly except for wheels.
M3 mirrors look a damn site better than what the Combo's come with originally plus they are the only ones that stick far enough to see.
Who said about needing to be about your liking?
