A lad i know is selling a frost blue 92 1.2 8v Corsa with 77k on clocks for 500 quid

im thinking of buying it and have already got him down by 50 quid.
ive had a look round and its got two rust patchs on the inside of the boot and a knackered exhaust mount making the exhaust rattle on idle. im not bothered bout the exhaust cause i can get the mount from a local vaux scrappy. but is the rust something to worry about because of its position

and is 450 quid a good price for it?

ta peeps

Take it for a good drive and if your not happy with something, point it out, show him £400 cash and you might have a chance but, £450 sounds a fair price for any car with T+T

I'd say you can get the price down a bit more, plus are you sure its a 1991 car?

Reason I ask is the Corsa B only went on sale in 1992 on a K plate, so is it on a personalised plate?

No worries, I thought it would be a typo, but worth making sure!

I think I've missed the boat on Frost Blue as it's one colour I can't stand!

Caribic Blue ftw!!

Sorry, price wise sounds pretty fair and I guess it would be good to see a tastefully modified one in that colour as I'm used to either seeing bog standard ones with white arches or the most chavved up ones around!
