The problem you'll have is that is highly modified and this doesn't appeal to a lot of people. Most prefer to strip their cars back to standard and sell off all their performance parts. How much is it listed for? Do you have the link?

think it would be a pain in the ar$e sourcing standard parts and getting them fitted then selling mod parts on.... will just have to see how it goes

When I used to sell cars for a living, November and December were always the quiestest times of the year.

Agree with Sef though, maybe less modified may make it appeal to a wider audience.

Nice car though!

Dont want to be harsh but there is no way you will get £8k for that age/miles car - regardless of the mods...

Strip and sell is the way forward - with the parts you have fitted you could make circa £3k (including a reduction for labour charges) then sell the car for circa £6k = £1k more than selling it as it is...

Yes it will be more time consuming but if you manage to source all the standard parts beforehand you can get a mechanic (assuming you couldnt do it yourself?) to do all the work in one go and save a bit on labour that way too...

Stripping and selling really is the way forward as people just dont want modified cars at all - everyone would rather do it themselves...
