Im really stuck and don't know what to do, Ive put my car up for sale (the blue corsa c) and have recieved and offer, if I sell it il end up getting an older car - but I want a faster car than a 1.2, my choices are really to sell the corsa c and get an older faster car which may not be as modern/reliable or I keep the c and drop a 1.8 in it? suggestions please

My choice would be keep it and save on fuel, insurance and tax. Mean while save some money and then sell and buy something faster.

honestly, if you buy the right old car they aren't all doom and gloom, and even when they go wrong can still cost you less than if you'd bought something newer for more money.

my car is a 1995 M plate on 187,000 miles now and i use it everyday
