If they are worth £1500, you could reduce your asking price to £5000-£5500 and then it would be priced to sell. wink


Reason for leaving those bits with the car is that if I dont sell it, the car is the way I love it.

I would not bother to compare a car vs another car without being more detailed.

No, I would not say that a 'fiat Coupes' go wrong more than any other 10/15 year old performance turbo car.

Looking at the technical sector is by no means a measure of how much the car goes wrong, as it does not take into account numerous variables such as previous condition and maintenance of the car etc. Any such hypothesis about the technical sector is flawed.

That is correct JimO is out to get you. Obviously because you have an opinion, nothing what so ever to do with not adhering to forum rules.

You can dare to think whatever you want, it is you who seem to be concerned about it being a Fiat. I am not going to take this thread any further off topic with replies to the above woeful posts. My apologies to the original poster.

yep - unlike scoobies.... rolleyes

any 10 yr old performance car will have issues if not maintained - from what i can see this is rigorously maintained and lovingly cared for - i'd wager this car is therefore VERY reliable...

EDz,

I think it's great that you are prepared to stand by the quality of your car and ask a high price. If more owners do that, perhaps people will realise how criminally undervalued these cars are.

It's Edz car, he can ask what he wants.

I was in a similar position last year, asking a bit more for my car than many thought it was worth, because I wasn't in a rush to sell. After four months I got the price I was after (more than Edz is asking).

You go for it mate. Good luck with the sale.

These cars are undervalued so i think its worth every penny really, i payed £2300 for my coupe about 1 1/2 years ago and i thought these cars were bargains when i started looking at buying one.
strange how they are so undervalued, but i think those times will change.

I paid £9.5k for mine, but that was OK as a few months before that it was up for £12k!!!

I heard a rumour that Barnacle paid alot more than that, and it was just for a 16v shocked don't tell him he was ripped off though, he gets touchy about it wink

When you are buying a car, you are not just buying the car- but also the time and attention the owner has given to the car.

Now from a performance and style point of view, Coupes are already undervalued.

Add to this the fact that most Coupe owners really love their Coops and dedicate a lot of time and hard work to them, when you think about it...it's really shocking!

This was the advert for your old car which I owned for almost 6 years. As Rog has said it was a good example had a few mods, sold for a good price to a new owner. Good luck in your sale!

THAT WAS MY OLD CAR laugh

And this one is in better condition than that smile I should know

It is a realistic price because if someone really wants it they will buy it and its only around that figure that I would consider parting with it smile (plate and the wheels are worth 1500) laugh

It is a future classic.

As I say im not fussed if it sells or not smile

Please dont be offended guys, dont want to p*ss people off smile

"You can see from the pictures how s**** this buggy is, its never been in the rain garaged all the time, new engine only covered about 100 miles had no time to enjoy the buggy because It has not stopped raining this year and I have no beach. Selling because its time for a new project no other reason the buggy has just been sorn'd its mot`d until April 2010.

This buggy really does bring a smile where every it goes everybody notices it people take photos of it (For Barryboys!)ask about it, it truly is one of a kind ([i]Yeah no kidding Sherlock)[/i]and i will be sad to see it go but it needs to be used more"


I might be tempted in a swap myself - maybe for a dish cloth or and old football.

I wouldn't drive that if you gave it to me.

I can see how it would appeal to someone who lives in Cumbria crazy

What purpose does it serve confused

I think one big issue is being ignored- What would the insurance pay-out be on the car... If you can't get an agreed value then that would influence how much I paid for the car.
