cheap looking steering wheel, set of wheels that are a bit of an old cliche now and not running the 4wd setup anymore, TBH for 11K I think you can find a far better investment escos wise.
Does look a clean shell, but the market for a rwd one is less than the 4wd ones IMHO
so like I say, to me it feels a bit overpriced, although if you agree with the 1500 quid valuation on the plate then I guess at sub 9k for the car after a big of haggling it looks better value but I tend to ignore things like plates as they are such a pain to sell.

sub 9k without the plate seems better. so tempted with an escos but not having a garage is putting me off.

One of my best mates built this car and I spent a lot of time in it. He bought it as a rolling shell from Paul at NYRS and put all the bits from a crash damaged imp blue one on it. It's on level 6 and a saph engine.
It's a tidy shell but too many bitsa bits on it. It's a 9k car IMO which is exactly what he sold it for.
I think if your buying it for investment purposes there are nicer cars out there.
If anybody wants any more info on it pm me.

Being a 2wd conversion imo is a much better car as i hate the std 4x4 system in a cossie!! its choclate shit and drives horrid compared to 2wd..
If it was an investment then i fully agree with chip and the more std the better in that case but for just having a good looking cossie that is more fun than a 4x4 its the best combo than any other cossie hence why iv converted so many to 2wd!!
As for the plate its never worth that money and i dont see any value at all from that..my mate has C3 WTH and cant sell it for Ł500!!

edit - actually have noticed he is backtracking now and agrees with me on it being overpriced now, lol
No back tracking mate..didnt realise its been built up from a shell and with all 2wd engine etc..
If it was a well done 2wd conversion on an otherwise well together road car then it would be worthŁ10 k all day long imo!!
And yes i now know what car it is mate but is now on the new number plate hence why i didnt remember it!!
Another well mapped and powerfull car!! very well put together and very clean!! i was actually going to buy it!!!!lol
cheers danny
Lol!! i think its easier to agree sometimes!! to argue over the price of a car we both cant see in the flesh would be pretty silly..
When i did see the car over a year ago though it was actually very nice but they seem to have dropped in value since too
