Interesting. Is this a forum car? Don't recognise it.

Not seen it before myself but much as I love that interior it does not go with the rest of the car in its current position. I personally think it would look much better with the vinyl removed, the green isn’t enhancing it any IMO

Quick car right enough running mid 3’s

100% in agreement with this, the green might look good on an old focus hatch

It looks crap! IMHO mind.

The green and the spoiler are really not for me, but I respect how much time and thought has gone into creating it. If I was him I would have taken the green off before listing. Obviously a lot of money spent on it but 460bhp from standard turbos sounds like a big bill waiting to happen?

Has this been for sale before? It seems to ring a bell.

Nice looking car - wonder what the project is, yellow 35iS maybe

IIRC he did say he would sell if he couldn't fix the misfire - but I assume it was fixed as it isn't mentioned in the advert.

Think he knows what is causing that and is sorted - its just what he will pitch up with next

Not sure where the 460 bhp is from but I can't see it with the relatively mundane mods done to the car..

Unpopular colour, cloth seats, 75k and £10k

Jesus they are really pushing their luck with that - mine was £200 less

 

[Ole gits rule]

Still dropping in price - be under £10k shortly from a £12k starting price - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/304117672446?hash=item46ced369fe:gq0AAOSwHihg~xJ3

They need to drop the "months MOT" number as well

Yes, that will not help plus its been for sale for 2 months so I would assume the MOT has run out :!:

 

[stevespg]

Ad says 10 1/2 months mot

 

[Pondy]

The £10k 23i on ebay's MOT runs out on 14th June 2022. The Gov's online MOT history checker is one of the very few useful things they have done in the recent past

 

[Ole gits rule]

oh well not so bad then - still a big drop but pricing looks more sensible now

 

[Pondy]

There are a lot of private sellers doing the same thing as this at the moment from what I've seen. I think they see that prices are going up, select a couple of dealer examples as a bench mark and pitch theirs at the same level or higher (because after all it MUST be a better car than the tat sold by dealers)!
It clearly doesn't work. This is the first time that I can remember where many private sales, for a comparable car, are higher than dealer prices and they will undoubtedly be bleating about not being able to sell their cars for the right price. :?

That is defo what is happening and I am sure some have got away with it as there is a shortage of metal out here, Ash said this one was not that good to start with so no idea why they think they can get away with it.

It actually shows that some the cars sold on here have been very reasonably priced and seemed to sell quickly

leggy but 2012 model in a decent combo for less than some folk are asking for 100k e85s.. couple of bumper repairs and a remap and could be a good buy

 

[Ole gits rule]

There are a few high milers out there now at decent money, still rather a slightly lower mileage car myself
