jambo is right sometimes i hate my corsa i look at the receipts and problems with my valver, only had it back month and done 200 miles lol but would not trade in for world, its part of the fun

yes jambo i know feeling with management light comes on in my valver for couple of secs now and again then just goes out no problems tho

I garuntee you will wish you hadnt sold it :)

But a mk1 escort to build fully spec will be 10K plus and that wont be anything super special!
I say take the engine out and out back to standard and sell on for 3k

then sell parts or buy yourself a kit car chassis and use the engine for that

Thats the point tim,

If you dont get near the price you want you may as well keep it for fun, and save for another car!

If im gonna bite the bullet least i'll take would be £4k but at the end of the day it is a hell of a lot of car for £4K. Hate depreciation on cars. May as well polish it up and stick it in storage for when my lil sis turns 18 and drives but she aint getting insurance though is she LOL.

Well it would prob take me 4/5 months of serious graft to earn me about £4.5K in savings after my living Ex's are taken out so may aswell be a stubborn git and keep it and just get saving. Feck nows what I want but I just want a nice chug along STANDARD car!! A nice A3 Diesel or something.

Anyone thinking of getting into this game GET OUT before its too late!! Im fast approaching 23 and am totally fed up with modifying!! Might buy me a cheap as feck battered Escort Mk1 as a project car but never again would I start pissing about with a nearly new car...

Yeah I have to agree that £4700 is a bit optimistic... depends what ICE you have though.

I was hoping for at least £3k for mine but I'm still not sure if I'm gonna sell at that price or just keep it for fun (considering the amount it's cost me recently)...

it looks like you have really looked after it mate, id say it would be worth that, nice interior too, engine looks so clean in your garage!

best 5 door corsa on here :thumbs:

but lack of intrest in 5 doors so i dont think u will get that much

cnt imagine there being much a market for a modded 5 door corsa :(

is nice tho :thumbs:

I don't think you'll get £4700 mate :(

Seriously had enough of the game. I now need to try and recover as much as I can out of my Corsa. Car cost me £7500 brand new back in 2000. I've spent approx £10K on it (believe it or not).

Is £4700 realistic do you think? If not think i'll break it and scrap the 5 yr old shell LOL.

Pics/ Spec in my garage.

Its a track/performance themed 5 door with 20XE engine, with a fair amount of Alpine Ice to sum it up in a sentance.
