well i bought my doner car a k plate calibra with a c20xe engine in but im after an astra gsi on here so i but it up on ebay for sale with sell price of £550 it was only up for sale for 1 day and i had 12 watchers and sheds of questions to answer

well got a call for a lad in tadcaster and he offered my £500 cash so i snapped his hands off and made £350 profit not bad for buying it for only £150

but the buyer came to collect it in a c20xe'd nova and boy was that fooking nice so its made me think do i want a corsa or a nova project to build

but i really want the astra gsi GOD too many options

so which 1 shud i do?
a corsa c20xe
a nova c2oxe
or a totally stripped out astra gsi

so pros and cons for each cars please welcome plus which would hold its money when come to sell

yeh i know i posted in the wrong forum

ive been told that the corsa is heavier car than the nova but i think the nova is abit outdated now

so whichshud i go for a nova. or corsa, or a stripped out astra gsi as i want to make money on it when i come to sell it

Corsa is the better looking one as well!

Go for the Nova, seriously cool cars nowadays at long last they're loosing the chav image.

nova c20xe

so then you all say nova but isnt it much more work to fit the xe than it is in the corsa?

also i got my ather doner car today for £300 and beleive me this engine pulls like a train saw it off ebay 5 miles from where i live and i test driven it then parted cash drove home and beleive me when i say this its got the best leather interior ive ever seen on a 14yr old car its like its come out of the showroom NOT 1 RIP.....

the engine needs a good clean up and some oil gaskets like rocker and sump but besides that what a buy i cannot beleave the seller sold it for that he didnt have a clue it was from a rite rough area in bradford or shud i say BRADISTAN if you understand what i mean! so over the wk-end im going to start to strip and sell the get recyclers to come get the shell and pay me for it as steel is worth some brass now due to the chinese i will upload the ebay number and you can tell me wat you think
