Been thinkin of selling the corsa for a while as i've had it for over 4 yrs and buying something newer.
Its just had a full yrs MOT and 6 months Tax
2 new front toyo tyres
new 2tr front discs
new handbrake cable, rear wheel bearing and track rod end and new windscreen (for the MOT)
Also its had the head gasket done with reciepts (autovaux) for all work done including timing kit, water pump etc.
The engine runs sweet as a nut, no rattles, smoke or thing it shouldnt do the milage is roughly 90k but everythings been looked after on it
TBH the only ting that lets it down is the bodywork. To make it perfect it needs a re spray something i'm not prepared to pay over £1k on as i'm growing out of the corsa now lol
The car is a 1993 L and has a 2ltr 16v conversion with a piper x filter, full s/s exhaust 6x4 tail pipe (loud) Depo smoked headhights, side reps and MHW rears, the drivers seat is worn but I have a replacement so that will be sold with the car.
I was thinkin of advertising it for £1.5k no offers considering its got full T+T on it do you think its a fair price???

great, I thought a lot of people would be put off with the re spray point but that is the only thing thats not 100% on the car.
I do like it but its time to move on I think

There are the usual rusty bits on the boot, B pillars have cracked and a bad spot of rust on the bonnet but if your badboyin the bonnet and smoothing the boot then that aint to much of a problem, the bodykit is all there including the jacking point covers but the paint is flaking off it now and will need taken off and smoothed down to get rid of the orange peel effect.
TBH its a good project for someone into the bodyshop side of modding.
