Agreed, that does look like a very tidy car and I would have said under normal circumstances, it would have probably sold by now.

Maybe hold off until all this covid stuff calms down and you may start getting some decent offers. GLWTS

I think it is the wrong time to sell anything at the moment except hand-sanitizer. Even those that paid moon money for a shed full of loo roll are looking stupid at the moment as sense has finally won over and shelves are full again.

Honest opinion, the car falls between two places,

It is a bit too messed with to appeal to someone wanting to 'collect' it, lot of work to make it 'original' again and not having the original engine, may not be possible. Original paintwork is also a seller, unless it is a really good job. Missing mirror glass is only a small thing but makes it look a bit neglected.

As an engine-swapped car for someone to use as a daily it probably does not go far enough, most would probably want to swap engine and a few other bits and it is strong money for a project car, particularly at the moment.

Anything will sell, it is just the price, if you can wait 6 months things should be different,

Good luck with it though, it is still a very tidy car :thumb:

Looks a super clean car mate. Is the engine still 1.8 then? Be a great buy for someone! Just as soon as all this nonsense sorts itself out.
