After 5 years of ownership, finally last night I had to wave of my Corsa to it's new owner

It was viewed on Sunday and sold then. Took it out one last time on Thursday night so that I could get some pics.

Gutted I couldn't drive it more this year! It's only done about 3k since January.

Here's it's final pics under my ownership











And one with some of its friends saying bye



Pictures by Phillyt (Edition etc)

It's been a great car to me, I've covered more than 60k in it. And it was my first car! Learnt to drive in it ha!

Moving onto a company car (great!) and hopefully a new project thread... In house day.

Thanks for all the help/advice/comments given to it over the years on here and at shows. It's been awesome fun!

Phil

It's left Hampshire....

Cheers for all the nice comments It will be sorely missed.

Priorities have changed a lot over the last year. Now my little boy and getting a house of my own has got to come first. Had a decent oppertunity to get on the ladder so i'm taking it.

The car and it's wheels (although sold seperatley to a different buyer) went for £2500. Similar price to Ryans C4.
