Remove the mods as that narrows your market down considerably, especially the HID headlights as most people are not keen on them. Then I'd say 12k or more as the colour is very desirable.

I'd be interested if I can get mine shifted, unless your interested in a PX for my Diesel (price dependant of course)?!

PM me if you decide to sell up :happy2:

12k??? Ain't that a tad high? I bought a 05plate two years ago for little over that from a dealership with 1yr warranty and similar miles? I'm expecting no more than 9k if resale now

Stealers tend to offer more in some areas and they are desperate to shift motors at the mo. Either GLWS as it seems a tidy motor
