I was going to a car auction yesturday and in the line was a lovely corsa i saw it from the rear and i though bloody nice, it was a M reg GSI that had a full Euro style kit and was slammed to the floor nearly i though thats gotta be a show car! when i went up to it i opened the door to have a look inside bcuz couldnt see with the tints hehe. Anyway it had a full customised interior and had a vxr dash i think was very modded and modern inside i had a shock. went to the fron of it and the bumper was wrecked and i thought ok not a lot of work. I was looking to bid on it, it went into the auction ring and the auctioneer explained everything about the car and said that the car is a write off!!!!
So i though SPARES!!!! the bidding started at £100 and i got a call that couldnt wait as i waited all day for it hehe, anyway i went back in and it got sold for £340!!!!
There were GSi Skirts Euro style deep dish wheels 15" on it worth £800 when i checked internet last night.There was a rear bumper a full powerflow exhaust system including manifold!!!, The interior had been fully retrimed in white and black leather that was gorgeouse and not only that i found out it had a 2.0 Turbo calibra engine with only 76k on clock!!!!!!and not to mention the brembo brakes all round!!!!!!!!
I was devastated and went to the guy that bought it and offered him £800 for the car, and he said "give me 1,700 and you got a deal" I hate him!!!!
Didnt have that sort of money and he only paid £340!!!!!
I could of had a bargain last night.
