who knows m8 prices are so up and down they are hard to price, just stick in a low offer and see how it goes

i would say its worth at least 1k for a mex needing lots of work

It is a sellers market. I bough a car like that for less than Ł200 a few years ago. Some people will expect over Ł1k for what you have described. Go in at Ł500 and haggle.

Genuine Ford Mexico wings get top money on e-bay (do a search). Even non-OE ones can fetch Ł200!!

Got any pictures so we can gauge how good it is for you?
