Bangernomics Civic - What to ask for it?

Sleepy

So, as some of you will know from my other posts here, I picked up a Bangernomics Civic with 175k on the clock about 2 months ago.

In that time I was sorting a few issues on it to get it NCT'd and ready to be a cheap run-around for a year or two. In that time it's had:

A brake service including a flush and replacement of the brake fluid
A fresh NCT (including re-test)
A full service
Two new front tyres (Hankooks)

(have receipts for all of this)

Prior to me, it got a new back box, battery and a few other bits to get it through it's last NCT in January but I've no receipts for any of this.

It's running great and I'm getting 40+ miles per gallon but cosmetically, she's not pretty. The paint is suffering quite badly from laquer peel and the usual bumps and scrapes a 16 year old runabout has.

Honestly, I'd be happy to keep her for another couple of years but I just got gifted a car I've been wanting for a long time so I'm going to have to sell her on (as I can't afford to keep two cars taxed, however handy it would be to have this one for doing the work mileage!).

It's taxed until the end of September, NCT'd until June 2016.

I reckon I've about €850 in her but I'm guessing that's a bit on the steep side for an ugly 16 year old runabout?

Id say if you got 300-400 you may be lucky if the body is bad

Only really one way to find out lad and that's stick it up on donedeal.

Ah come on, it's worth more than that. Is it older than 15 years, Sleepy? That might give some people insurance problems.

Apart from that, it is in good condition (I presume it has no issues), it's taxed and it has a long NCT. And Civics are very popular cars. Put it up on Done Deal for €999 and see what you can get?

If the body was good yes, with severe lacquer peel I cant see it i'm afraid

I'd agree with unkel, unusually :P donedeal for €950, see what offers you get.
