I wouldn't sell mine...for the simple fact that it's worth more to me than th Ł4-5k i would possibly get for it. Had it 10 years now,it's like an old family pet. Have recently bought another very nice motor for everyday use,the saff has only done 3k a year(tops) for the last 7 years. I'm by no means a bufty,just keep on top of it mechanically,and enjoy the odd(very odd) trackday thru the summer. Have cosidered selling it a few times but the wife says i'm not allowed to now!

I've had mine for 15 years now it was exactly 1 year old the day I picked it up, just turned 80,000 miles, stage 1 fantastic condition.
My wife and daughters would not let me sell it if I wanted to but if I did then wouldn't let it go for under Ł6,000+.

i sold my saph for 10k nearly 3 years since and it was a 2 owner 60k with loads of mods and id got over 20k in that car but the thing is no matter how good your saph is youll struggle to get good money for them as most people want a 3 door or escort.wat you all want for your saphs and wat youll get are probably miles apart
people dont seem to want to part with their cash for them.Heres a cople of my old saph after id sold it

They are difficult to price, I broke mine and did ok..

And for the people above thinking we will run out of Saphs.. You see mint K plate shells in scrappys all the time, it may not say cossie on the log book, but then a log book/ID is not hard to find either..
