Nova mrk4 moved to the dark side :-(

Hi all ok so it's not technically a nova but it is related in away. I'm sorry to say I bought my first ever Corsa but in all fareness it was a bargain I couldn't really let slip.
A Corsa c sri came up for sale locally listed as needing a crank sensor and air bag ecu but was at a stupid low price so I thought I would take a look.
After a quick HPI check at work all was fine and we set off.
When we got there we where very surprise to see it was as tidy as the pics made it look and nothing that a good scrub down and hover at work wouldn't fix.
As said it had the listed 2 faults and also needs a ac compressor but I've sourced one for a later date.
It also came with tax/mot and a full Vauxhall service history and is only on 87k
So we haggled a bit and got him to drop from £550 ( which I would of paid) down to £450 happy days.
Yesterday I got a replacement crank sensor and air bag ecu and fitted (£25 for both) and is now running sweet as.
Today it's in for its mot at work and a bloody good valet as that's what I do for Mercedes Swindon.
Please don't hate me to much but at lease I've stuck with me vauxhalls just a bit newer for Kieran's safety.
Hope you like.

Nice bargain! The wheels go for around £250 ish too! So basically a £200 car

Good buy, It would break for a lot more than that. If I had seen it I wouldn't have hesitated.
