after a rough price guide as it is and standard?

cheers

 

£7000, imo put std brakes and std alloys on her and you'd make another £500 (std brakes and £900 for the APs, Std wheels and £600 for the MOs if they are mint with decent tyres) and sell the car for £6000 + £1500...

 

You'll need to buy a cheap Renault 5 to put your number plate one

 

i'd echo steve B, obviously will break for more though.
i'd trade you with an xr2, slightly less practical, maybe a little quicker.

 

trade me at what kind of deal?

 

i really wouldn't think it would be viable. i mean for me more than anyone to be honest, forged zetec turbo with area six head/cams/vsprings, tubular manifold, etc.
as much as i'd love a FRS, money would have to come my way for one as there is a ridiculous amount of cash (even broken) in the xr2.
but if you want one of the fastest mk2 fiesta's in the country.....

 

Id give 7ish for that. Reads well.

Milage a touch high but no massive deal.

 

They all suffer from worn wheels from what I've read?lovely car but as stated get it back to standardish and sell the bits separate,you get more then.
I never used to do it but the last few cars I've had I've kept any goodies that came with them and passed them on seperately.
I wouldnt even mention to a prospective buyer you have the bits as they use that as a bargaining point and they end up going for jack shit.
Think logically too regarding a diesel,yes more mpg but fuel is more costly and a lot of modern dervs have pump/injector issues which can cost in the region of £1500 to sort so be careful it doesn't turn out to be good on one hand and bad on t'other.
Shit time too sell also,maybe worth waiting a month or so?

 

definitely split the parts off it pal!

 

yeh could be looking that way

 

£5500 standard.........
£6500 with the bits.....

Like Steve said, take the bits off and sell seperate....

 

I'd probly give £6500 for it or do a deal with my Clio sport?

 

The standard alloys would help the car sell easier. Should get around £6.5k for it, have been keeping an eye on these recently myself. Do you have the standard alloys?

 

No but I am considering returning to standard as I wont get my money back otherwise, il probs do a deal with standard parts

 

I could be interested in a deal on the wheels I have standards all be it powder coated black?

 

how much do you want as it is mate pm me

 

Standard around £5500

 

Also intrested in a price as it stands? Cheers

 

you have a pm

 

Think price is £7900 as it is £7000 standard.
