Sounds pretty cheap.

The missus was looking for a 1.2 SXi in garages 2 years ago and couldn't really find one for under £5k!

Its an alright price, personally I wouldn't pay more than £2.5k for it.
Are SXi's not 1.2?

Looks pretty mine. I would.

I thought SRi's came with the darker rear lights? Or was that facelift only?

Might just be a 1.4 twin port elegance or whatever???

£3000 seems alright though.

They only come with dark lights if they're in a dark colour IIRC. Black/navy get tinted lights, silver/pale blue don't

TBH £3000 doesn't seem that much of a bargain tbh.

My mum has a silver one with tinted lights from the factory.

This is an early early one though, which is why it hasn't got them, or the 16" wheels, and it has an "SXi" spoiler too. Interior is different to the later models as well I think.

Looks

Not sure if its worth 3k though. My Corsa B 2000 with 46k on the clock was £2k a year ago.

I guess Corsa C's go for a bit more though? You looked at a price guide for it?

Just to put a perspective on things, my 03 plate, 31000 mile 1.4 3 door C is £3300 trade, according to Glass' guide, obviously you can add a bit for a private sale, but I still think 3k is a lot of money for a very early C.
