£10k - when did you want me to collect it?

[Das Chin]

I was thinking £23.5 to £24k.

My car is almost identical. I'm thinking 22k would be nice.

[phoenixcsl]

I would personally sell the car standard, take all your mods off and either put them on the new one or sell them on their own as you must have £2-2.5k in re-sale of all your bits to add to your fund.

Plus selling a standard car opens up your market.

[J2LTB]

He hasn't got std brake setup though. Quite right though. Sell standard.

For a potential buyer, maybe
IMHO that's too low for a clean Cecil with full AP anchors (worth up to £2K on their own) I'd say @ £23,995 OVNO and take no less then £23,000 .
At the end of the day a good clean Cecil is a very rare thing these days and an appreciating asset.

That makes me happy to know mines worth that then .😛

[Das Chin]

thanks matt.

i cant be fooked to chase down standard parts, such as a full brake set up, pay a csl tax on those then pay someone to put them as it wont be worth it in the end.

will get the car taxed in April then see what happens.

I wasn't talking about your Cecil mate :wink: :hahaha:

Daz could be talking about my car the spec is so close. So I'm interested to know what mines worth :thumbs:

I hear Ya mate :goodman: TBH AP BBK is an attractive feature on any Cecil as the OEM stuff is well documented to be poor.
So long as you price your car accordingly ( which you will ) to recoup what you could get for the AP BBK on their own then it's Happy Days for all concerned.:thumbs:
GLWTS :beer: if you decide to let her go.

How's the overall condition of yours ? :whistle:

Sorry we are going off thread now.

In my opinion it's very good. I've done a hell of a lot to the mechanicals including a full re bush. I'm trying to refresh everything. Including a forth coming head gasket :-/
