Hi, my Porto is a rust bucket and I've been offered a 20vt v6 x reg.
It's not advertised anywhere but has been upgraded and rebuilt.
It has a new engine from Fiat that has been rebored, forged pistons etc. Done about 7k miles since replaced.
Turbo upgrade
FMIC
Silicon pipes
Upgraded pump and mod
Upgraded injectors
Blue flame exhaust
New tyres - standard, clean wheels
Belts, bushes, wishbones all replaced in last 10k miles
Air bags - side impact
Air con
Remapped
Boost gauge
New brake pipes, disks and pads
Gearbox done about 50k
6 paddle uprated clutch
Undersealed
Etc. Etc.
Basically rebuilt 125k car that's done less than 10k

Can't provide further details but any views on what it might be worth - assuming no rust?

Thanks.

That sounds like a £3k to £5k car, but could be another £1k either side of those figures if its slightly dog-eared or extremely good - all IMHO, of course

What colour? (it can have a bearing on price)

I'd agree with Nigel's loose estimate, at this point in time the prices are on the up.

The colour was moon grey, thanks for the feedback.

'It has a new engine from Fiat that has been rebored, forged pistons etc. Done about 7k miles since replaced. '

I'd want to know more about who built the engine and to what spec? Obviously it wasn't 'new' if it was rebored & fitted with forged pistons.

Sorry just noticed this post is a few months old! Wonder what the outcome was?
