at 8K it would be STUPID to sell it, so im sure they wont let it go for that.

25K sounds like a fair price, but cant be many people with pockets that deep for such an unusual car.

Stalled at the moment waiting for the manifold, which should be done in the next couple of months.

Got pretty much everything else sorted now.

*Phone call to insurance company*

"So it's a Ford Fiesta"

"Yup"

"Engine Size?"

"Er, 1.25..."

"Any modifications?"

"FPMSL - Er.....!"

That does sound a little steep, but I bet you couldnt build with brand new engine and all accesories for less than 20K in all honesty.

That was EXACTLY my point.


Does my head in when people say "bargain" when its only half way through bidding!

Its only a bargain when its SOLD

I'll bet you couldnt get near thirty k if you costed up all the man hours of prepping/modding the shell and the development hours for the rest of it to make it reliable and handle well, maybe a bit less if A1 gave you diagrams and an exact spec list with drawings and measurements of the total conversion and you could just build it.
