Hi people,

Just need some advice if possible regarding a Vauxhall Corsa i should buy. It is a Cat D Black SXI 1.2 Corsa 02 reg but has been fixed. Its going for around £2500, but i am not sure.

Is it worth it as i was looking to pick up a damaged corsa cheap and fix it up myself, but cant seem to find any near Birmingham.

Any advice or tips or what you think its worth investing?

cheers

if its been repaired by a reputable bodyshop and has been done propperly and passed all the safty checks then it'll be ok, but dont expect it to be perfect. also if you intend to sell on and get your money back then dont bother as the resale value will be sod all

You will no doubt pick it up for a good price, but that will be reflected come re sale. Cat cars generally put people off.

in my experience you dont struggle to sell damaged repairables so long as the price is right, and it doesnt need to be a lot less either!
