Thinking of selling for a bit more power, but not sure if its worth it, as it may be worth nothing and the car is very reliable.Its a lovely motor but its very dead, only a 1.3.

What do ye think its worth and what could I buy for about 5k that would be as reliable and quicker?

Depends on whether there is any NCT, types and the usual stuff. What you ask for and what you get are also two different things. If there is a years NCT you should be happy to get 15 of 1600

Nct 01-10, 5 months road tax, tyres are good and car has been serviced every 5 or 6 months.

Im looking for nearer €2000, but I could live with 1600-1700.

I reckon if you get an offer anywhere close to €1500 for it, take it.

Also it might be worth putting back on the standard wheels and selling those alloy wheels seperately. They are an acquired taste and may limit interest in the car.

That's my opinion anyway.

Take photos with a proper camera, those are completely out of focus, did you take them with a phone?

Was thinking about selling those seperately alrite.Car looks dull without them, but like you say it may put off some buyers.

Do you think I should take off the seat covers, steering wheel grip and gear knob as well?



Does it give off a boy racer look or is it ok as is? ( im not one btw )

IMO it does. You might get a few bob for them seperately too or keep them for your next car.

Its alot of hassle selling now

I'd say I will keep it, it looks like its going to be alot of work to even get over a grand for it.A bit of extra power would be nice, but it doesnt make sense financially.I look in here alot but dont post that much, because I dont know much at all about motors lol.I respect all your opininons, especially yours Bazz ( even though I cant understand your devotion to Focus's )

Aye i'd take off the extra's and try sell them separatly. At the same time if some young fella or the likes rings you, you can tell them that you have a set of wheels that would fit it at an extra costs etc. etc. As said, you will limit your market if you leave them on.

Get good pictures as well!!!:D
