Title: Selling up.....
Post by: craigy123 on September 13, 2013, 08:57:34 am
I'm thinking about selling my stage 2+ candy white edition 30. It's a 08 plate with 38,600 and FWSH. Would I be better off returning it to standard and selling off the mods?

Mods are:


Standard extras are


What's your thoughts?

You've got over 2k on the resale of those mods I would think... Guess it depends whether you can find a buyer willing to spend the extra... Perhaps try selling it 'as is' and if its not gone within a couple of weeks then strip it. :happy2:

That's what I was thinking. The wheels are getting powder coated back to as close as factory as possible next week so will be up for sale then. (Ill miss that dark wheel though I think)  :sad1:

To get the best return is to demod the car but takes time and effort. Good luck
