as some people may know my corsa is basically sold just in process of getting the plate swapped over..

what should i do next..

sell it, and buy a car with the cash, most probly a black lupo and go euro obviously, but that would be all my money gone just to buy a clean standard one (then theres alot of money on wheels and coilovers etc)

or

sell it, buy a run about, most probly a low mk1 fiesta, and put the rest of the money away and keep adding to it untill ive got a decent amount for a very nice car..

my plate is going on retention anyways for 12months so should i use this chance to own a mk1 fiesta?

what do people think?

mk1 fez....no majority of them will be shagged and the good ones will fetch big money. Get a mk3 diesel astra....run on anything....and should die as much

mk1 fiesta will be a money pit i find, not a nice car either..but as the 1L porsche beater said, i would keep the corsa and save money, but if you want to go euro and getting a lupo (i find them a nice car when they look good), but if you get lupo, coilovers are getting cheaper and so are the wheels if you get a good pair of second hand wheels, but theres no rush to make it euro, it just dnt happen over the weekend lol

Just buy the car you want and mod it when you can afford to.

Mk1 Fiesta is by no means a runaround A shitter will continually die, a decent one won't be cheap. Ford Escort 1.8d van is a cheap runaroond! I'd wait and get a better car personally.

A MK1 Fiesta as a run around is a novel idea it has to be said!

Lupos are nice but are pretty pricey for what they are. Seems a bit strange to sell the Corsa atm though if you don't know what you want and aren't in a hurry...
