Default Mk1 focus rs

Do you think this is a fair price for the condition and mods?

That's a fair realistic price IMO, people see a 6k focus RS and all of a sudden think there all only worth that.

That's what I was thinking, or a high mileage standard car 6k is about right I just can't see it being worth much less with the amount of mods and the condition.

Exactly my point... I have a 28k miler and is completely mint apart from a few stone chips etc... I'd like to think its worth around 8.5-9k

What do you want me to do give you an explanation to my opinion so you can disagree with it.

You obviously think it's worth that or you wouldn't of advertised it for that price.

I don't agree.

I'd say Ł8500 tops. Wrong time of year and the cars have dropped shit loads over the past 12 months.

Best of luck.

It's a bit high on the miles/owners but what would it be worth a standard car, around 7k I'd say, then you need to take on board that it dosnt need anything spending on it and it has some nice mods, the brakes must be worth a grand! I was thinking of getting another mk1 a little while ago, if I did I would look for a 5-6k turd to run a round in or if I wanted a nicer one I would pay a premium for a clean car with the right mods, this is that kind of car, I think it is a realistic price, if I was looking for one I'd be going to look at this with 9k in my pocket.

Take the brakes off and drop the car by a grand....those ap's always seem to be snapped up 2nd hand !
You need someone who actually wants a really nice one to get the strong money for good ones imo....seen plenty of ropey examples that people are happy with and payed lower end money for so whilst you'll obviously not appeal to someone looking at the lower end of the market doesn't nessecarily mean all frs's are worth 6k!
It's all a matter of opinion though as said.
