So, earlier this year, I had to quit my job because of health reasons and went to work with my best friend of 27years at his company.
Sadly, this have not gone well, over the summer sales have died despite our efforts due to little things like the olympics, BREXIT, the looming posibility of thermonuclear war and i think there might have been some sort of football thing going on too.
anyway, the short story is that come christmas i will no longer be able to pay my morgage and before then I need to sell all my posessions, this in cludes my beloved coop and I want to know what she's worth.
She was bought as a restoration project, with a blown turbo and not much else, the engine repeatedly ate turbo chargers (5 in total) so i not only put in the old engine from my old coop, but also had the engine fully rebuilt.
The engine has now got an uprated turbo charger, forged pistons, new big end shells, new water pump, new timing belt, new AXU belt, FORGE aluminium recirculating dump/blow-off valve and a whole hoast of other little minor things.
The slam pannel, strut brace, rocker rover have all been sandblasted and powder coated
She's fitted with a full set of my stripped and restored breake callipers, although the rear ones are two pack painted and not powder-coated. she's got vented, slotted and dimpled EBC disks all round, and currently has EBC redstuff pads (to match the colour of the calipers), she's also got customised braded brake hoses too which don't rub!
She's got a full original zender body kit, with front bumper, side skirts, rear skirt and spoiler, she's got a replica fiberglass zender front grill too.
She's been fully soundproofed inside, she got gutted when i installed the audio system and she's got two 2 channel amps, one for the front speakers and one for the rear speakers, the front speakers are component speakers with seperate tweeters and splitters, the rear speakers are coaxial, also with splitters and are all focal, speakers and amps. The head unit is a pioneer USB head unit which can play FLAC audio files and there's an additonal power cable routed into the cabbin for anyone who wants to fit an subwoofer.
She's in really good mechanical condition, 98k+ on the clock and passed her last 2 MOTs, she also doesn't leak oil or burn any oil since the engine rebuild. I was going to install the old air conditioning system from my old coop into her but i fell ill before i could, I still ahve it and the engine has the electrics and aircon pump already installed (just not connected). She's got a leather interior in pretty good condition, the padding on the drivers seat is going on one side though so you can feel the springs when you're getting in and out. Everyting works apart from the sunroof, the sunroof is goosed, it wont open or close and because it started leaking it got silicone sealed shut.
She's also got a blue flame stainless steel catback exhaust system and an apexi cone air filter.
I bought her for £800 from someone on the forum and have spent about £7-8k on her and I would have liked to get the sunroof fixed and her resprayed but those are just dreams now.
Let me know what you think, is she worth selling as is, or would I get more for her in parts? I am truly desperate for money now.
