Think thats all lol

I\'ve been working on the car for about 12mnths and have had it as a long term project, its been garaged for the past 8mnths and will be a beauty once finished. Obviously i\'ve been spending a small fortune on this car and it is so close to being finished and ready for an MOT. Any ideas on prices would be handy, or anyone know of anyone looking for one. Any thoughts welcome

Cheers Adam

Is there no way you can get it road worthy? YOu will more than double its value if its road worthy.  Project pricing can be iffy - My guess would be to add up what you have spent and divide it by 4

[grinder]

if its that bad - i reckon break it for spares

you will prob see most of your money back that way

such a shame that you have to sell though

^^^ What he said ^^^
 
Shame you can\'t get this one finished or at least running for RSIV :confused:

[elford_tim]

I\'d have to echo the other comments - unless it\'s a running car, it will fetch a lot less than the value of the parts if you break it.

If you\'ve got a chance of getting it running/driving, someone here may pick up a decent project but I\'m not sure how much you\'d get for it...

[grinder]

you got a price in mind Adam ?

[hawker182]

Yeah seems as though i thought, guess would like about the £500 mark for it as is, may stick it on ebay with a reserve see what happens....u never know. If not will do my upmost to get it running. Suppose with a fresh 12mths MOT it\'ll be worth alot more. Either need it running or gone by September unless fate has it otherwise, cheers for comments though. Need to go price up what parts are needed to get her running....then look at the pro\'s and cons of spending the money in order to sell it...Hmmmmm decisions decisions

[grinder]

if thats all you want .. must resist

i reckon you could break it for a lot more than that

Trust Greddy FMIC Setup - 200
Greddy Style BOV - 5pence to me - 40
Magnecor Leads -15
Dual Alternator Pulley - 15
Short Ram Induction - 25
Cone Filter - 10
Electric P/S Conversion - 25
FD fuel pump - 20
Ohlins coilovers fitted all round (dropped by 40mm and stiff) - 150
2.5" Straight through single exit stainless exhaust inc de-cat and downpipe - 150
Intercooler Spray system - no idea
Aluminium bonnet - 75
Rear Strut Brace - 15

so thats gives us .... £740

and you can still strip the car for bit like seats and switches - that prob another £200 easy

so thats nearly 1K

[grinder]

at £500 im sure that me and brett can go halves and take what we need

[TiddlesRX7]

I\'d be up for chippin in some £££ for buying it. If your up for it Stu.

[hawker182]

Yeah when you look at it like that i suppose their is money to be made back by breaking it, thanks for that Stu

Like i said though am only just thinking about it and wanted some opinions on the idea. Ideally i think i\'d like to get it going and see the fruits of my labour over the past year, i could alway sell the coupe, which i dont wanna cause its my daily runner and its a beaut!

Hmm need to do the maths...cheers guys

Adam

[grinder]

lets see what adam does

i have my eye on one on ebay at the mo - its only in preston - so about 10 miles from me

[Ricco_04]

Shame you are thinking of getting rid one way or another

Is there much in the way of getting it finished?

Makes me so tempted to brake mine and buy yours!  Especially for the £500! :2eek

[hawker182]

Getting it finished..hmmmm is it ever finished, that is the question lol

No not really needs the throttle body hooking upto the FMIC piping and prob a wee bit of petrol then should be good to go for an MOT.

Also at present needs the downpipe, decat, dual alt pulley (have the extra belt, well 2 new ones) fitting, a bit of coolant, new oil filter (ready and and waiting) and a nice charged battery and she should start up! Thats how it should go lol. Will need a few extras too, either FCD or ECU as it\'ll prob run all lumpy to start with. Dosent really seem like so much, hmm decisions

[Ricco_04]

I think you just talked yourself into finishing it! :Laugh

Or at least, the first stage! :flamed
