hey ppl
after my car being stolen n burnet out, it hasnt detered me away from buildin another mint gsi! or atleast a mint corsa.

i have been offered a white gsi, white 17" prorace 1.2's, combat 1 front, morrettes, smooted boot, reiger rear bumper, bockets etc etc.
the millage is 106k wit no service history on a1994 L-reg.
how much do ppl think this is worth? ive been told the engine is immaculate n he is askin £1300 wit the interior

i will try and get some pics up asap as im still waitin on some more



the car its self is in gd shape from the pics wit no dents, scratches or rust. bumpers need changin 2 std and there r a coule bits missin from the skirts but nothin i cant sort out.


wot ppl think? is it worth takin a sencond look and goin 2 c the car or 4get bout it due 2 mileage and no history?

all views taken in2 account as im after another car asap.

cheers ppl

james

it looks crap but for that price it seems a bargain, so it may be worth getting and styling it the way u want it

i would think about it. the money for the proper front bumpers, bonnet and skirt bits could be made from selling the other stuff.
would look damn good all clean white, with the white wheels etc

but peel them stickers off the doors

i'd consider it because you don't see many white GSI's around. Sell the kit and the stupid bonnet, put that money towards an engine rebuild, so it won't go pop.

Seems a bit too dear IMHO especially considering it needs work.

May as well wait for another unless your in a rush...

The car wheels are worth £300 (or whatever), so you only pay £1000
+ £50 for a white bonnet, but you'd get that back from the sale of rear spolier and old bonnet.
Front bumper isn't too bad either not goood but not the worst I have seen.


So IMO it's a £1k car. Personally I would wait for one that didn't need anything doing but if you know the history of this car then worth a punt...
...offer £800 cash

Its true, white GSi's seem to be extremely rare so like me you fall in love with the first one you see for sale mine was a bog standard M reg with 88 on the clock, abit of service history and it only cost me £950.... It may be worth waiting for something else? Especially if you plan to make it look more like a GSi again! That one imo aint too pretty
