Car swapping ... ?
 
Since we found out she's preggers :thumb: we want to increase the size of her car .. obviously getting rid of my Scooby would be silly :D

She has a Corsa SRi 1.4 Y reg .. Black in great condition .. we are looking to do a straight swap for a people carrier ...

Where would I look ?? The book price on the Corsa is 3.5k so anything around 3k value ideally ... a Corsa would be easier to sell I would think ??

Any suggestions ?

search for swap on ebay and then sort through.

or

Swaps - swap meet, swap shop, house & home swap, car swaps - swop shop

ive swapped cars on both sites without issue :)

Of course, people only ever offer swaps that are massivley in their favour...

Why do you want a people carrier???? Just get a normal car/estate but with 4/5 doors. And the only reason for that is that 3 doors means it's a pain (and can be painful!) getting baby/seats into the back.

I dont she does.. she doesnt want an estate and the three door corsa is too small.

You just after the cash or you willing to take the Corsa?

apples24 23 November 2008 05:20 PM

no sorry mate wouldnt swap, i did plan to be honest to £2395 the picasso in the trader as soon as get it back from her, but 2k cash would be the min i would accept.
