Hi,

Advice needed.

Link here

http://www.fiatcoupeclub.org/forum/...2&an=0&page=1#Post180882

Thinking of selling the car which is thoroughly described in link above... with the differences listed below.

What are views on price please as given the items listed below? I just wouldn't know where to start.

72k miles
Centre console now black
Superspool although new smokes. Seals according to Rog

Bodywork and interior better than some of the £7k + pluses I have seen!! Car if anything is in better condition than when I purchased it (I can explain more if required).

Tax/insurance now just expired and I may SORN it as I have the LE insured instead. Car securely garaged off road.

MOT runs out end of Feb.

Extremely quick, very, very torquey car (307 Lb/Ft) that has embarrased a lot of exoticar on the road.

Currently awaiting approval from the forum moderators so I can post in for sale section. I just don't have the time for two Coops now due to work commitments and this one has to go...probably...maybe...depending on what people think.

I'm sure Jim will be impressed by that comment <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

No idea what you paid for it, but Jim had it up for £4900 so I'd think considering the smokey turbo you'd be looking at between £4500 and £4900.

Well, as you know, there is someone interested in buying it if you do sell.

He never contacted me and went quiet after the last comment on JimO's for sale thread. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

No offence intended to JimO <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

I stripped everything down and cleaned/waxed to include all door shuts and hinges, behind front scuttle which was thick with 10 years of crud/leaves and treated/touched up paintwork where needed.

There were a couple of faded bits of paint which are now looking like new with a lot of elbow grease.

As already stated, I can honestly say the car is in better nick than £7k + coops I have seen. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> And I've seen a lot over the last few months! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Anyway, what do think I should put her up for? <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

I'd go with the previous post, £4500 sounds about right. New/recon turbo will be around £500 upwards to sort.

Lovely car though.

If the seals are away on the superspool £200 will sort it including new wheel aswell.

Ross

Thanks Ross, been quoted £200 for a full re-con.

Well, tax in the post now (6 months) and I still cannot post for sale yet despite emailing a request to allow me to do so!! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" /> I guess with the work that's going on in the back ground with the forum upgrades and what not...

Likely price will be around £4100.00 <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> for a quick sale, sounds reasonable?

An absolute bargain? I reakon it'll go quickly <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Jayzee - your PM box is full....

Wow, that's a steal mate. I'd snap your hands off for that much car for 4.1k if I was looking to buy one!

Have you got the replacement yet?

Emptied now!!

Not in the For Sale Section yet though <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

Sure have... here http://www.fiatcoupeclub.org/forum/...9&an=0&page=0#Post247119

Nice one, she's lovely <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Your driveway must look fantastic <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/love.gif" alt="" />

cheers Stu,

I keep meaning to take a photo and post it before the blue one goes!

He he, you and Joel are the flash kids on our block <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />

Absolute bargain <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

I don't think you'd have any problems selling it for that <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Cheers bezzer... Happy Birthday by the way.

Well it's either selling it, or I have a strange compulsion to strip it out and use it for track days only

Don't ask where that one came from, the wife will kill me!!

save it while about may and i will have it off you if its a 6 speed car without a sunroof

You know what, for the amount I'm about to spend on my coupe, I could sell mine and just buy this one! tempting..

Sorry chaps, decided to keep and convert it for track days

Worth more to me like that than selling it for pennies, especially as I have just found out it is the second most powerful Superspool Coupé out there

Cheers for the positive comments though, promise I will try not to stack it

ha ha I knew I would talk you round, I made all that up


No, seriously i think it is only JamieS that is getting more power from the SS than you

So what's his secret?

It's that damn FMIC, I knew it!

Glad you've decided to keep her John. So, what's your everyday car going to be now? Coupe no.3 on it's way?!

No mate, two is enough Hear you are selling yours?

Yep 'fraid so, just got to book it in for a service and then will post her up for sale

I'm another who's joining the world of motorbikes and selling the Coop is the only way I can afford one. I'll get to ride far more often than I drive the Coop so looking forward to it to be honest

Well, I'm pretty much going with the selling her idea

She's just had the full 72K service, new OE Fiat thermostat, replacement new front callipers, new handbrake cables and the Superspool rebuilt. 12 months MOT too

I have in the last two days removed the cat and had an un-silenced de-cat pipe put on and the sound is soooo nice

I'm now thinking to spend some money on the LE and stop being silly having two coops.

What do you think and any idea of price? Forget my original price above as I have now spent over £900 on her to get everything A1.

I'm thinking £4900 for a 302 BHP car.

Aww don't be going all sensible on us

I thought you were about to get a third, what with drooling over that red plus.

The sprinty would be the one to go round Bedford, and up the runway too, of course

Keep it. Strip it. Track it.

I've been given an ultimatum by the missus, so one has to go

I'll qualify for a company car then

Just preparing the ad in MS word as I write - JimO, apologies in advance for copying part of your original ad mate

Ahh the boss. Understand entirely mate. Good luck with the sale.

"My worst nightmare is that when I die my wife sells off all my toys, for how much I told her I paid for them"

Make sure you add this is a proper safe 302 bhp not some driveway pikey maximum boost running like a shed fcccuk whats safe claimed 300 bhp.

Ad now in the for sale section, hopefully this explains?
