im having little interest selling my moddified 5, so thinking of taking another option.
Heres some pics, the car smokes on start up i think maybee its piston rings
i could.
1: keep it moddified as it is fix the problems and continue trying to sell it.
2: put origenal bumpers & grill on it (already have tailgate and skirts) paint them blue & keep the clio wheels on, fix the smoke issue & try sell it?
3: break it?
the problems the wheels, the spoiler, the skirts.. the front and rear bumper aren't that in your face but OE just sells 5's..
as for the smoking, i dont think some people give a f2ck.. you can sell a 5 with rot, a blown engine and a group a dump valve for a grand, yet a good honest running gtt with tax and mot just scrapes 1400..
you'll have to hold out, theres nothing you can do that isn't gonna cost you more money to sell it.. breaking it might be your best bet if it doesn't go, just keep the shell rolling and someone will buy it.. strip it to far and its junk..
How many times do i have to tell you??? EBAY IT!!!!!!
im so certain that it will make what you want that i promise to buy it if it does'nt!!
Now get it on there!
indeed ebay that car dude.. The audience that will like that car will scour ebay, its your best bet, worst case if it dosent sell is that you end up £8 down so at least give it a go once.. dont set reserves just put it up at the lowest your planning to take and see how it goes.
i usually like standard gtts these days but i quite like that 1 agreed get it on ebay
Thanks guys
im quite suprised, i thought everyone would say put the origenel kit on it.
looks like ebay it is then. hopeing to get at least £1500 for it even then im going to be at big lost.
il get it on there soon.

i told you,it's the colour! and it's done well!!
i think everyone would prefer o.e but you'rs is nicely modified and suits,so no point reverting back to o.e
Surely that should easily fetch 1500 notes, you see ****e corsas going for money like that and this is far more unique.
if you could blag a cheap oe set of bumpers in tungy, skirts and archs i think you could be onto a winner.. the two tone thing goes down well, some oe wheels or anything like that would get more interest..
but you want it fecked off and ebays the place to get rid fast.. just be careful as alot of people that sell cars get mates to bid them up and end up winning them back, hence they say the seller let them down again and again and again.. id expect alot of the cars sold on ebay are still with the original sellers
i know i'd be bumping up the price and wouldn't let it go for less than i wanted
i would go with these guys as well ebay it as someone has said worst case you will be £8 down

cgb would bid on this and break it up and mug everyone for the parts sold have you tryed phoneing bob and asking what he would pay he may well buy it with out it going on ebay JUST A IDEA THO THIS ONE GUY
I can't believe your cars not selling it looks like it's straight of an magazine from early 2000's.
Looks really nice apart from the wheels think some Momo sport or Porsche D90 alloys would finish it off for me.
advice taken now on ebay lets see how it goes

just had a message from cgb asking if i had a buy out price.cgb would bid on this and break it up and mug everyone for the parts sold have you tryed phoneing bob and asking what he would pay he may well buy it with out it going on ebay JUST A IDEA THO THIS ONE GUY
i told him no im letting the auction run.
it would be a shame to have it broke especially as the car is so tidy.
if hes gonna buy it and break it you should just cut out the middle man and do it yoursellf..
i told you this would happen he in a rut as he cant get the renault 5"s to break now so hes haveing to buy from ebay he done the same to my mate when he was selling hes renault 5 gt turbo and won the bid for it in the end ! long as you get you money whats it matter if its broken up for parts
take all that bling off and replace it with oe plastic, he'll only win it and make money that you could have.. i'd burn it out than let him take my car and break it on me..

Yeh nothing worse than buyin parts cheap of ebay then selling them on to rtoc members for a profit.....
The old saying comes to mind "those who live in glass houses shouldnt throw stones"
How have you, of all people, got the cheek to post that?

i bet shakes is in shock the amount the car is going for should get £2500 +++ i think
Until cash is in hand eBay dont mean a sale, hear so many times of people pasting other peoples times.
im glad its getting the bids on ebay, after having little interest on pistonheads.
but im still a bit concerned people are bidding on it but i have had no messages from bidders asking about the car which i find strange. lets hope there not messers.
i think the car is worth the £2300 its up to and im confident if the winner bidder actually turns up he/she will buy it the car is very tidy body work is shiney and dent free interior is mint the shell is completly solid and everything works.
if bling is there thing its a good buy
The thing with ebay is your are advertising to a large amount of people who don't know any better so they would of never have seen it on pistonheads before let alone know what that site is!
Have to agree with Bigfoot though ebay is the home of alot of messers
