TheBishMan

Looks like a good ad...but there's no "reason for sale"

Or it could just be me being nosey!!!

User 32922

Thunderbird 2, Enterprise yes yes

User 32922

yes there is..."5 years to get it the way I like it but I’ve just bought a house and need the money."

mmanse

seam's clear enough to me so must be o'k

TheBishMan

Oops!!

Good luck with the sale

cossiecrew

dont take this the wrong way but id be surprised if anyone bids deffo when they read this bit

The car is based on a 2.0i Ghia Shell

Mr Brannen

You spelt fibre wrong,...."fiber", sorry I was only messing, ad seems fine

User 32922

I know, i know, the log book is the big downfall. No rust etc but the shell is not a cossie shell (is in better nick than most cossie shells ).

Still worth a try though, has been very well done

SPADGE

I bet that car attracts all sorts of freaks on Ebay
Rather you than me mate

User 32922

really? never sold a car on ebay before

cossiecrew

lol your kidding theres far to many freaks on ebay mate

SPADGE

Not being funny but i don't think this is going anywhere unless you get a lot more realistic about its value! There maybe someone out there who just has to have it because of its unusual appearance but i bet that person hasn't got a minimum of 6k to spend on it

User 32922

Why would they have to spend 6k on it? what price do you think is realistic then?

if it doesnt sell i may brake it....how much would it be worth in bits?

SPADGE

My mistake change that to 5.5k as this is what your starting bid must be!
I just can't see anyone paying that for what is essentialy a rep but time will tell. Good luck with it and i hope i am wrong

User 32922

Don't suppose anyone would post it in the for sale section for me would they?

I could re advertise it on ebay as "spaceship for sale"

CossieRich

iTrader: (1)

YOur going to have alot of emails/questions from Max Power readers mate.

Good luck with the sale

User 32922

perhaps i should put an ad in the back of maxpower then

thanks

john

My thoughts as well 5.5 seems well steep.

Good luck though

Rhys

Good luck with it mate and let us know how it goes

Dan

Shouldn't have thought that this would be a problem to someone who knows what the score is with proffesional conversions etc, at least you've been honest mate!

Good Luck with the sale Nice Ad

User 32922

thanks fella, not out to lead anyone along, trying to be as upfront as possible. I love the car, just can't afford it anymore Hopefully someone will give it a good home

Rhys

Dont worry mate seems some people want something for free as usual Put it up for what you want for it and see how it goes! If not break it dont let it go to cheap

User 32922

thanks fella

I want someone to get the fun out of owning it that i have had over 5 years, but if not then it will go in bits

Ginge !

the part i would be more concerned about is the insurance valuation


apart from that the car is very very clean and its true deffo one of the cleanest cossies about

give it a shot on ebay and then worst comes to the worst look at breaking it for the least hassle weay of selling cars

but tbh loads of people buy things that are interesting, 10k for the mk4 escort with a cossie engine spadge bought, thats alot of money but was sold

good luck

Mr Brannen

Yeah a lot of people have a hard time paying Ł5,500 for real saff cossies so I wouldnt think there will be many people out there that will pay that for a replica
.But you never know if that one person comews along who just has to have it....funnier things have happened, no one can fault ya honesty though.
And yeah the Max Power readers will be falling over themselves to speak to you

Good Luck Mate.

Micky The Finn

iam with spadge on this one.
perhaps a lower start price mite atract more bidders and you should never put picture up of whats NOT included!!!! seats!!!

User 32922

yeah guess i should change them over....those pics were taken last night so need to get the old ones back in. They are Gra's old seats and are in very good nick!! maybe someone will take the car as is though

Ginge !

i got a mate thats bought a mfi xr3i with a body kit and paid 3k for it on buy it now off ebay

he flew to scotland to collect it and loves it

i personally wouldnt pay 3k for a e reg xr3i but he did and loves every part of it

SPADGE

Bit of a difference here though Ginge as that Gartrac had just had upwards of 10k spent on the engine and wasn't competing with other similar cars!

Rhys who has said they want it for nothing on this thread??

The reason i mentioned i didn't think it had a hope of selling on ebay for over 5.5k is based purely on its description BUT like i also said there are people out there that may have several thousand to spend on something different just like i did with the Gartrac but i suspect the sort of people who would like to own it won't!

DanRSturbo

Good luck with the sale m8, shame to see it go, it's deffo one of the strangest sierra's I've ever seen.

You can sell anything on e-bay, good luck with it m8

Ginge !

spadge i was using the gartrac as a example as people mention its alot for the car ect

but it was suited for you and ya enjoyed it

the best example should have been the guy who bought the mfi body kitted car for 3k

ya get what i mean though, not trying to offend

SPADGE

Ginge you couldn't offend me regards to that heap as i hated it from day one and should never have bought it!

Ginge !

hey i loved that car

just aint got 10k to buy it
i would love to have owned it if ya dont include the prob with it

Gra

damm i let you have em too cheap then


good luck with it, but i when first thought about selling mine on ebay, I got to 4k with 3-4days to go, when i pulled it off (started at 2.5k i think), but through that advert i actually sold some parts when i broke it.

good luck, i would relist it with a reserve to atteact buyers
