As some of you may know, i have my heart set on a RS Focus, and may be getting one sooner than i thought. Checked insurance today and with 2 yrs nc, and 3 yrs driving, @21yrs old, with 1 claim, the quote was £1380, which is nearly what i am paying on my Fr. So come October time, it will be going up for sale.
Now the hard bit......
How much do you think its worth? as i have absolutly no idea ata all :confused:
This is the spec:

Seat Ibiza Fr PD130
Registered 28 july 2005 (05 plate)
16k miles
ESP, Curtan airbags
Mods :
Full Milltek exhaust system, from turbo back,
Forge FMIC, Forge Strut brace
Green dynatwist induction kit,
Allard Hybrid VT2 turbo conversion
Sachs uprated shock absorbers
Sachs uprated organic clutch,
Audi TT 312's brakes
Ibiza cupra wheels in black ;)
colour coded bump strips and eye brows
Lhd style rear cluster lense

i think thats about it :lol:

I was thinking at about 11k?

what do you all think?

You'll never get back what you paid for the mods and it'll be harder to shift with them on, so you should think about putting it back to standard and trying to sell it that way.

IMO, put back to standard as much as possible, then sell for 8.5k-9ish dependant on mods left on...

the new ibiza will have lowered price a bit.

well tbh, i cant really put anything on it back to standard, as i have sold the origonal turbo, suspension, wheels, intercooler, brakes, exhaust etc etc. Only thing i have is the air box and filter :shrug:

You're either going to have to bend over and take the hit on the resale price or just wait for the right buyer to come along then.

Although saying that I think I still have the OE brakes, suspension and intercooler for my old one somewhere... ;)

hhmm, after all this interest, it may be worth while to make a bit of money from the parts, and aquire the origonal parts aswell. So, my parts, for your parts, plus a little cash? How many people would be interested? and what bits in?PM me.

ummm, if allards would do the swaps i would have all the turbo, manifold and ecu off you. Pm me spaniiels, just saves me waiting till next year to get it all done and sorts your little conundrum.

Just a quickie though, have you actually driven a Focus RS, i was a little dissapointed when i had a go,

Your buying a car without driving it ?:blink:
How much do i thionk your car is worth ? Not much with the way you drive it ! :bleh: Just joking mate, really am sorry to hear you leaving the diesel stuff and surprised that you are selling your car after spending so much money on it. :( Hope it all goes well for you in the end even though i will still leave you choking on my fumes no matter what car you buy. :D
