Vauxhall Corsa - Value My Car - TheSolution

Hi everyone,

This is my first time posting here so firstly want to say hello! thanks for providing a platform where people can ask and find the answers to the questions they're looking for.

I have a white Vauxhall Corsa SXI 1.2L with 80k miles on the clock. I want to attach photos so you can see the condition of the car, as there is a dent on the passenger side but for some reason its staying grayed out. I will update in due course (admin pls respond)

Cheers,

Nathan

You need to add the age (reg year) of the car !

Age of Car is 2012. Any idea what I should do about the issue with attaching images?

"Any idea what I should do about the issue with attaching images?"

As far as I know, you can't. You will have to post them somewhere else and provide a link.

Yes that's correct. For some reason you can upload in the Classics forums.

Are you intending on trading it in, selling it to a dealer without buying another car or do you want to sell it privately? Values depend greatly on how you’re offloading the car.

Is it in good condition? Does it have a full service history? How long is the Mot? Are there any warning lights on? What body damage is there? An 11yr old Corsa could be worth a few grand or it could be scrap money if it’s needing a fortune spent on it. You’ll need to give more detail.

The 1.2 SXi is in demand though, they’re popular with young lads looking for a first car that has a bit of a sporty look but without the high insurance. But at this age condition is everything.

I sold a 2010 Corsa (just pre Covid) with a big hit and run dent. We had run it with the dent for a couple of years as the paint wasn’t compromised but we had a bodyshop quote when it was damaged for £500.
When I was selling I just took the Autotrader guide price and deducted the £500. I took pictures that made it clear that it was dented and that the price reflected this.

How much? In those far off days only £850. But we had originally bought it from a Car Supermarket in 2011 for £5400. How times change.

If you cover no more than 100 miles per day and have easy access to a charging point at home or work, then an EV is ideal for you.

Is an electric car right for me?
