i dont want to slate the car as i havent seen it, but you've got to see it from a buyers point of view, i'm sure the car is alot better than then pics show
hope you dont take this the wrong way, all the best
Nah,I appreciate it mate,I had a feeling most of the enquiries weren't serious anyway.just surprises me that people cant see beyond a few days work to end up with a very decent car,like I said,work out the costs of a full respray,rebuilt motor,mint interior,mint wheels,more spares than you shake a shitty stick at etc.
If you look at it breaker wise,there's the asking price back from all the oily bits and interior,I've seen people asking £150 for doorcards on here,I've got a perfect set for this,even the originals aren't too bad,the rainbow trims worth £350 all day long,say a £150 for the two 87/88 spec saff trims,£80-100 for the rs2k interior,£75 for the s2 recaros,another 2 leather interiors,must be another £150 each all the other bits and bobs and I'm counting a grand there before you go through all the crappy bits that never seem to sell!!!
This place has gone dismal for selling stuff lately so I think it maybe an eBay/pistonheads special from now on,the shit I've seen over there for £5k is shocking.
There's a cheap 4x4 on here though for £3k,makes you wonder how people are getting more for theirs?
Point taken on the pics but I believe honesty to be the best policy even though I'm not sure why I bothered writing the ad out on here!!!
