not in the UK right now so hopefully that means my C (Cdti Sri) with around 80k is holding its value well

Most people think their is worth more than it is, but I'd go along a wave the money in their face and I'm sure they will drop the price. I don't know why people do it because it put people off.

A car is only worth what someone will pay for it

i just sold a 05 plate 1.8 sri for £3400 with 77k so i would be!

when a car gets to a certain price it wont drop any more, corsa b's have held there vaule for a year or 2 now

spend another £500-£700 you will get a later spec car

would love it but its insurance for me and the girlfriend, we're only looking to have the car until she passes and i'll be saving up for a mk3 astra gsi.

my mate has a 1.2 sxi on a y plate

112,000 miles or so, timing chain ticks like fuck, he kills the car and its only had the wheels done black,lowered 40mm on corsa b springs,backbox and facelift headlights tinted and hes asking 1200.

imo id give him 900 but hes having none, it needs a timing chain, and tlc. pisses me off when people over price cars

If you can't find a decent Corsa C for that price then decent Corsa C's must cost more than that price

I wanted to buy a Ferrari for 2 grand but there were no decent ones for that price

People on here (dreamers) still want £1500 for an old B, not finding a C for that is hardly surprising.

My mate has one for sale, would probably take 1500, it's a 1.3 CDTi on the 54. Better than giving nearly that for a Y reg.
