FDUK forum is the only other place I can think of in the UK.

Prices have gone up quite a bit in the last two years, they\'re now getting to be valued more similarly to Supra TTs (quite rightly IMHO ;) )   £6-7k is baseline for a decent FD, sometimes one goes a bit cheaper when an owner hasn\'t noticed the recent rise in prices.

Whoever buys it, I\'d suggest doing an HPI check to ensure it\'s not stolen/crashed etc. (as with any surprisingly cheap car).

I\'m sure it was a cat c when I saw it some months back advertised on autotrader. Might be wrong and mixed with another car but does look like the same one.

This car must have been up for sale for something like three years and maybe more :eek:, just picked up a copy of Octain and there\'s a half page then a small ad in the back, must have cost a fortune to advertise over the years.

Regardless of price , one worry with this car is that standing around like it has, chances are the water seals have deteriorated

Yes but you do have an option to remove it.
