the time has come to sell my car or take it to the next level:
someone has offered me £4400 for it, has 52k, full service history
do i sell it:
and then buy this: nova i know but look how clean and the engine:
and have lots of spare cash to buy a private plate and a run around??
OR
smooth boot, new sideskirts, new spoiler, bonnet vents and bad boy, smooth scuttle, konig buckets, tv and ps2 in the corsa??

id prefer a nice concourse condition car, like the nova rather than a huge 19" rims and big kitted corsa, thats what you need to get featured! the nova was featured in febs tv
it is immaculate and has had so much spent on it

nova would be good - if u go for it lose the mirrors tho, look tacky in chrome esp, with black base plates

just remeber turbo cars are high maintiance and turbo conversion are noutouriously unreliable. Jstmake sure u got some money to fall back on if u buy the nova.
Drop and XE in the corsa best thing i ever did

Surely the LET engine can't be that unreliable??

i think the corsa will have to go,
either get the nova and a fiesta van as a run around and buy me self a new crosser
or
buy a 1.8 focus and do that up!! prefer first option though

Is your corsa a gsi etc?? 4.4k sounds like a good price to me I'd probably take it. Buy the Nova? not sure, they are old and past it but it does look clean. Then again 4.4k would go a long way to buying something really nice
