Corsa 1.4 sport
R reg 1997 very clean shell 91k recent clutch and cambelt
interior is pretty good outside is excellent
black wheels in pics or i have a set of softstars that could go on
smoked tailights
depo fronts and astra mk4 smoked repeaters
colour coded handles and delocked on passenger side
bee sting aerial
apex shocks and springs worth £260 done about 5k
gsi bumper and skirts also post 97 bumper availiable
piper filter
punto rear wiper
imrscher pedals
irmscer gear nob
irmscher back box
still has spare and toolkit

bad points:
tiny bit of rust at bottom on left of spoiler i mean tiny
minimal service history but runs sweat as a nut anyway and i always service it often (twice in 7k)



reason for small amount of service history is the bloke that sold it to a garae who then lost it when they sold it to the private seller.

but i contacted him and he told me he worked in a sprayshop so all colourcoding was done professionaly and he cleaned it everyday was also garaged and did clutch and cambelt at a dealership. also most of the miles are motorway miles.

Would you consider £1300?

Also do the wheels rub? Can you have people in the back with those wheels?

Do you think an under counter fridge would fit in the back with the seats down?

cheers mate.

Martin.

Do you think an under counter fridge would fit in the back with the seats down? no idea but probably

cheers mate.

not very much atall a few old MOTs and the recepts for the oil and that i used possibly if they are still in the car.

i can assure you its well looked after though and should really come and see it before you write it off as it has no history. it has been looked after by a mechanic of 20+ years since iv had it and i know the previous owner was also a mechanic
