i cant believe this car is going up for sale, ive watched loads of threads on this emerging from a jap wannabe to this beauty we are seeing now. on a personal note, the transformation alone and the hard work behind it...you cant put a price on that, and you just bought a pair of nice tasty bum grabbers as well. but its your car mate and the value...wether sentimental or financial can only be decided by you. does the nice bird in the pic come with the package? just kidding! :lol:

id say that sounds a good offer to me........

if u sell it u might live to regret it, but hey if ur human then ur gonna make mistakes and regret them but its all part of life. if u sold it u could always buy another the same or similar and do it all over again, see wat else u can coome up with. might find ur happier with the new car and dont regret it after all.

as for how much its worth. have a look on autotrader website, u can value ur car there. i done it and got these results:



Prices


Dealer £3,345

Private £2,795

Part Ex £2,645

Cost New £9,740


obviously i didnt have the exact details so u could do it and see. how much a cars worth doesnt matter if its modified or not. modifying it doesnt make it more valuable, it just depends on whether people are willing to pay that much for a car that is already modified..... i wouldnt. id rather buy a standard car and do it all myself...... that way i can stand back at the end and say i did that!!!!

its the condition of the car, engine, mileage, body work, service history etc that makes it more valuable.

i know i sound like a grandad but its true tho.

id say £3800 is a good offer.

What alloys are they on it? Would love to get some for mine!
Nah there isn't that much more i would like to do, A few subtle touches here and there.

The allloys are a bit of a mystery. A german brand called Huhrer. I'v never seen a set like them, so thats what made me want so much. Get in touch with rocco-jocco on clubpolo. He always has similar style wheels in the for sale section :wink:

Very true, I just saw it and thought, wow the power and pictured it sitting on 9x16" Borbot A's which i saw for sale 8)

I'm pushing him for £4k so i would take that.

Wish i lived in london max! I'm gonna push for 4k i think cos i'll still have my leather TT's for sale which will capture £300.

Cheers dubpilot. Totally agree with what your saying. It is hard to put a price on it due to the time and effort it has undergone throughout the transformation.

:lol: The bum grabbers will be up for sale if the car goes, so if anyone wants dibs, heres the chance.

cheers for that kipper, you speak a lot of sense, and totally agree that the value of the car is only what someone is willing to pay for it, personally i feel somebody out there would pay 4k for it. I'm pushing, but there saying 3.8k is all they can afford. Anything i can do to try n convince them?? :twisted:
