my personal opinion is not a chance of 10k, only part history and a reshell would put me right off and you can buy a good one with full history for that money

Totally agree...........

i would say its a 6-7k car with that sort of history and a basic engine/conversion.

It wont matter what you have on it.........The wheels could be gold plated but the history of the car is a little bit of a let down.....

You wanted to know if your Reshelled 3DR with a little bit of history is worth 10k............

No it isnt!!!!!

have to agree theres enough out there with full history and good condition with good spec's for around 10k so even if yours is mint will put people off unfortunatly. Dont let that put u off thou if u deff what to sell it then stick it up for sale someone might buy it!

Break it, Im looking and have 10K to spend but I would not buy a reshelled oneeven if it was 7k let alone 10k.

looks nice though.

why would you buy a reshelled one for 10k when you can buy a proper nice real mint one for 10k

Whats wrong with a reshelled car boys surely if the shell was a new gen cos 1 then it would be more solid and cleaner than most out there

Re shell or not that looks like a nice 3 door , has the sunroof etc nice wheels and nice 500 kit. guess it depends on why the car was re shelled . as it stands its got to be worth £8000 if it was a cos shell


Good luck with the sale if you decide to do it


Oh and this guy is asking 7k and thats without an engine
