240bhp Fabia vRS

Featured Replies

Just testing the water really. I know it's a very specific market when buying a highly modified car. I'm in no rush to sell and honestly I'm not even convinced I would sell if offered the money but I do fancy a change.

It's a 2004 (54 plate) Fabia vRS with just shy of 80,000 miles. It has full service history with the cambelt being done only 5,000 miles ago. Since I've owned the car it has been serviced every 2,000-3,000 miles.

It has a massive spec with literally hundreds and hundreds of changes that I won't even remember. I've not skimped on any of this and always tried to do the best with the car no matter what. I'm often criticized for doing so... I think it's had in excess of £25,000 spent on it.

There's tons of spares included with it too, whatever I have left when/if it sells you can have, various head units, lights, bulbs, standard suspension, wheels, blah...

If it doesn't go for over £11,000 I'd sooner keep it. The majority of you will think that's excessive but I invite you to add everything up, if anyone wants a car like it then £11,000 is a bargain but I apprieate most of you looking at this will see that you can get a vRS for £4k and that it's nearly 3 times overpriced. :p

Not overly fussed if it sells or not, I'm 50/50 on selling and keeping so I guess this will decide for me.

Luke

PX and cash my way?

Why are you considering selling up... The spec list is huge and what would you even replace her with?

keep it emoticon-0148-yes.gif

If you are serious about selling you will have to strip, like you say its a very small market you are aiming at IMHO of course

Do think the car is cool and you are mad for even thinking it, but thats me

How much would you sell for?

Luke, you are mad. Keep it, low running costs, save up over the next 6 months/year and buy something very tasty.

I could see you in a Nissan ;) or something else Japanese with 4wd. :)

Honestly keep it!

You'll never get what you want for it!

At a push with the right buyer you may get 8k on a very very good day

But in reality the cars worth maybe 4.5k standard

Are you for real? Your smokin crak if you sell this

Followed your thread on corsa sport this is some bit of kit

DONT DO IT !!!!!

Nooooooo, I want to see more of this car! But if someone was to buy it they would be getting the best vrs possible on the market :)
