To sell standard or modified

[TDi Vrs]

Hi guys went and tried a vw touran today and decided to buy it. Felt the fabia was just to small with me being 6 4" and a baby. The boot doesn't have enough room in it for all his stuff. So it's time to sell the fabia my question is would I be better off selling standard or modified?

Thanks tim

Standard, modified cars are next to worthless in the current economical climate unless you are very lucky

If you can sell it modified privately then do it - I sold my slightly modded MK1 vRS private and ordered a new MK2 vRS Estate which I now have. Its alot bigger than the old one and well worth a look if you're like me and hate people carriers

He'd get more for selling them separately than just including them in the car though...

6' 3" here and thought the Fabia wasn't too bad in this department. Pedal position can feel a bit unusual though and the seat all that way back means zero leg room at rear. I do tend to like my seats set a bit like a deckchair though

Definitely have to agree with the above. Modification is such a niche market and will put off your average buyer who'll think it's been ragged to within an inch of its life and/or be concerned about insurance - and even if someone looking for a modified one was interested they probably wouldn't pay anywhere near what the mods were worth - even if they'd happily spend thousands on modifications over the car's life.

Sell it standard and make money out of the upgraded parts, but before you selling post on the for sale section dropme a pm so that I can "help" you shift stuff quicker

Possibly, but I think if you factor in the rarity of fabia`s with leather and how much quicker it would help it sell as well as the extra he would get with it fitted it wouldnt be worth removing.

Aw, shame your not closer, would've wanted a couple of small bits to swap etc. Good luck selling your car!
