How much is she worth?

Post by Sparrow »

Hello All,

As above i was wondering what you believe my Excel is worth. So as much as i don't want to i might be putting my Lovely Lotus up for sale but with her in her current condition i wouldn't know what to price her at. As you know from my project page thousands have been spent and mechanically she is spot on its just the body work that is what lets her down. She needs a full respray and a little bit of fibre class on the front left corner. she is cream leather mixed with grey cloth interior, Mot will be done this month and only has 86k on the clock. below is a link to my thread where you can see everything.

It's worth far more than you will ever get for it.

Sell it and you may never get another.

Stu is right, big mistake selling now, you will regret it later, especially it being a family car.

Full good re-sprays are expensive, but if that is the only thing pushing you to sell try a cheaper wrap option instead.

We need someone to pick fun at.
