A Corsa down my throat of the woods is like a magnet for the Halfords crew. They dress them up in skirts and call them fast . It just shows, with a minimal spend and imagination you can have a cheap car for sale. Lovely video and I just love your dry humour.
My dad had a 2013 corsa D 1.4 turbo black edition a few years back. Great little car and never had any issues with it. You got a good car for the money 👍🏻
I’m a well built bloke like yourself, I was given a Corsa D as a loan car with the same seats. I found it uncomfortable, it was the worst 3 days of my life. I couldn’t wait to get my car back 😂
Used car values in the UK are hilariously low! In the United States sub $1,000.00 used vehicles are as rare as unicorn droppings and everything around $500.00 would have been sold for scrap. A vehicle in similar condition and mileage would easily sell for $2,000.00.
"parking dings" = baby pick axe strikes Triangular tyres. I'll pass. Passenger door and front wing seems slightly different shades. Maybe. Vehicular Homicide Search: always the premium package; that's how they get you.
I appreciate the savvy nature at 23-24mins! £35! Having a laugh! Ebay is king for such items. However just in case you did not know, especially as someone who has owned many corsa's and now has an Astra H SRI, typically when the resistor has gone/going (as above, with the fan only working at setting 4) is typically because the blower fan is on the way out (too much resistance, resulting in it not working at anything less than max), so a new resistor may only work for a few months (happened to me lol). Luckily the blower fans are cheap on ebay too, for ones Astra they are like £30-40, so I can imagine a Corsa is around the same, if not a little cheaper. Easy to change too.
this is especially apparent when you change the resistor and it gives off an odd electrical smell when turning to a setting between 1-3 :P (For my experience anyway haha)
I’ve owned VW’s for the majority of my life so far. The odd Fiat, an Alfa or two. Now a 2.2D Mondeo Mk4 which I think is great for the money. But a year or three ago, I bought an Astra H 3dr 1.8 SRI which suddenly changed my view on Vauxhall’s. That handled the bends with ease, but the engine was as dull as dish water! I’ve never thought of ever owning an Corsa though.
On the left flap in the boot there should be a tyre compressor, right side thats towing eye, jack and brace they sit in foam holders. Your also missing the boots false floor. It's a year older than my sxi. Mine in much better nick though, the rear arches must have been sprayed. Where the bumper joins the arch its a notorious rust and bubbling spot on the D Behind glove box you will find a relay they blow that's why only works on number 4. As for glovebox the 2 little plastic connectors will be in the glove box take it out and they will fall out 👍
Hi Joe,another great video.i had one of these in white 2009,with the 17' wheels not very quick in a 1.2.there was only one opc badge on the wing.valet this and it will fetch more.
Not a bad car for the money. But as a dealer you have to add in labour costs. And what about the speed censor ?...the busted fog light ?. I would like to know what the profit is when you add EVERYTING in as your actual profit margin...as a dealer...is a bit misleading.
You forgot to add the parts for the speedo problem even if you did its still a good profit i started doing this last month and already hit tons of profits use to work in a warehouse and made more in a few days than I use to for a months work in a warehouse just wish I started this before was too lazy in them days

Yet to try that but I will 👍

Get a Lexus! You'll actually look forward to long journeys...
Good stuff, I'd like to see some of your "Better" cars which I guess are the backbone of your business.
P.S. That AA sign looks pretty tired !!
Noted, I will try to mix it up. Yes, it’s well worn now, I need a replacement!
Great vid on cheap cars. You mention the farm with all those cheap cars, is there a website or a Facebook market place where they are all listed

I couldn't turn the fan or ac on in an smokers ex car, never know what is blown out and then breathed in...
I wouldn't have even sat in it and drove either😬
Always quite liked this Cora’s design 👍 (good work with that cancer research donation too)
Shotgun blast damage in the AA flag at the start of your video? Competitor?? 😄😄 Good job, I'm enjoying your videos.
Haha, fierce competition down ‘ere
Hi Joe, can we see how you go through a sale. We’ve seen the acquisition, prep and presentation. Now the sale, if customers agree.
We can try, don’t think most customers like a camera in their face but we can try, not that I tend to do sales tbh!

Could be ideal for the raffle.
The glove box is a common failing on these - look on UA-cam and you'll find a fix using zip ties. Did my son's 4 years ago and it's still fine

Great video, I really enjoyed watching it❤
nice pickup making 280% profit well done

Love look of your stock you got in at the min mate 😊
You forgot to price in a new ditch finder on the nsf!
In the video description 👍
Great thanks professional

My corsa was in Weston-super-Mare, I think they're finished as it's all Minis outside there now.
Great video!

I’m currently. Selling my. Daughters corsa D I’m 6ft Andy 18.5 stone. Good little comfy car even For a big chap
Great vlog
I would be interested to know what was wrong with the speedo ?
It’s the cluster itself
Why wouldn't you want to sell this from the pitch? What's the deal with Sophie selling from the farm?
Too old and cheap
Hi, just wondering if you managed to fix the issue with the speedo, mine has the same issue!
Thanks
Not yet but Speedo sensor is on order, £12 on eBay if I remember
@@ShiftingMetal cheers mate👍🏼 if you disconnect the battery and reconnect it, it resets the speedo back to normal but it goes again after a while.
Cool car dude
So there was damage on the front bumper and the bonnet plus other dinks on the car. Are you fixing them snd how much will that cost? 😊
Nah, not worth it on something like this. You’d spend every chance of profit making it straight. It is what it is
I would be surprised if you got £1250 for it in that case.
I always smell engine oil... people give me funny looks in doing so.
It’s a bit weirder if you’re doing it at home in a wine glass though 😂
@@ShiftingMetal Ahh bugger, that's where I've been going wrong! 😂
Love the corsa
😂😂they were bad mate kettle on
Cracking video watching here in Richmond VA across the pond. Very nice margin on that little Corsa.
I bet they hit a deer or something and damaged the bumper and bonnet.
Deer is goods guess
This car could be somethink to use on a shitbox challenge
Bargain at £200👍🏻
👍👍

Fair enough. I’ll do an break down of what it truly costs me next time 👍
Quick turn over joe,
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I got £210 here for it
I bet 😂
£200 is about 25% more than it's scrap value. This suggests it's a piece of crap.
I think... it could've hit a deer
What does this bloke expect for scrap money, some people are saddoes
You’re the saddo saying my 17 year old videographer is hot, on another video…
Typical Car Dealer Getting A Car For Less Than Scrap Price
Is that meant to be an insult or compliment? 😂
@@ShiftingMetaljust jealousy pal😂😂
You forgot to add the parts for the speedo problem even if you did its still a good profit i started doing this last month and already hit tons of profits use to work in a warehouse and made more in a few days than I use to for a months work in a warehouse just wish I started this before was too lazy in them days
I did, I put those costs in the description
