Hi
Im thinking of selling my corsa, just want to know if i should put it back to standard or sell it as it is?

Its a 1.6 16v Sport, 1998 S Reg
62,000 miles
Very good condition, interior is immaculate, normal rust on the boot and bonnet though.

Mods are 15" tigra wheels sprayed black
Gmax springs and shocks
Magnex exhaust (backbox)

How much could i get for the non standard bits? an how much should i expect for the car either standard or not

Thanks

Tbh the mods you have done i wouldn't think lower the price of the car. The car looks nice and is definately worth more than a standard sport 1.6!

Thanks for that, ive seen the parkers price but in most cases their price doesnt actually reflect the true market price, what kind of money do 1.6 sports go for these days?

Cheers

As that guide price is for 80K miles

I think i would keep it if I didn't get £1500
Same spec are selling for that price and in most cases they have done more miles and they are slightly older.
I'm thinking about getting the bonnet and boot re-sprayed to get rid of the few stone chips and rust. Do you think it's worth it?
Thanks
