Well me and the missus are expecting a baby, so obviously the corsa just aint big enough. so im going to have to sell the corsa and get something bigger.

the corsa is a W reg, black, with 61 on the clock, white corsa c alloys, debadged grill, very good condition - how much you guys think its worth?

also all i will have is the value of my car to buy something bigger, so what you guys suggest?

cheers

The Corsa is big enough, just not as practical, my mates just had a baby and they've only got a KA, don't know why people think they need something hooooge. Anyway, Vectra, Mondeo etc are probably best bet, they are selling for next to nothing! I sold my 53 plate TDCi Mondeo for £2.3k with 90k.

vectra mate, can get a decent specced vectra for around a grand petrol or diesel.

agree with MattK its not the size of the car its the safety aspect, plus prams, car seats, change bags etc etc take up more space than you think

You'll get more than that for it, just have a look on Autotrader at what similair ones are going for and put it up for sale.

Little one fits in a Corsa! Pushchair a bit of a struggle. I'd get a golf/astra etc over something massive.
