Depends how much you're asking for it if it was up for sale? do you have the standard parts to go back on?

They're typically worth more put back to standard. You can sell the bits and you also have a wider market to sell the standard car to.

With it being a 1.0 12v i would just leave it as is. The 1.0s are quite popular for 17yr olds who have just passed with them being cheapish (use that loosely) to insure. If i was 17 looking for a Corsa for a 1st car, i would be more than happy to have it like that.

If you have the standard parts there then yes 100%. Doesn't look like a 'boy racer' car then, plus you get the sell the parts pocketing more cash.

What parts would you have to sell? Wheels, suspension, and I noticed theres a different grill from the 1st pic to the 2nd lol. Wheels might be worth a bit, depend what sort of suspension you have.
I always try and charge a bit more for my modified cars, but I advertise them as very well looked after cars at a decent price....harder to get but thats the way I do it, perhaps due to laziness.
Try n sell it someone whis just passed their test, they'll think its just the ticket and perhaps pay a bit over the odds.

Wheels, lights, skirts, suspension and leathers from what I can see. About £350 in parts on top of price you sold the car at.

Not a bad amount of parts I suppose, considering your average 1.0 Corsa isn't worth much. May be worth while alright, but Corsa-Sport 21 has a good point imo.

I'd put it up for about £1100, any more and you'd have it sitting for weeks and weeks with not much interest.

Yea as it stands now. 500 is way too low mate with tax and test , and my price was based on what Corsa_Sport21 about it being exactly what a young lad would want, they would pay slightly over the odds for that if its what they liked. You would also have to be willing to knock a few pound of that price.

I'd still chance my arm at £1100ish and be willing to except 800 900 tbh, see what sort of interest it generates. If no 1 gets in contact then just lower the asking price.

My first car was a 1.0 and cost me 1k nearly 3 years ago, and that was also modified, taxed and mot'd and had only 50k on the clock.
Timing chain been done on yours?
