HI,

I feel the value of these cars is based on a love / hate relationship....i think they are great so would pay up to £5k for the right car however if you are worried about getting your money back at the end of the day then thats another story as you are guaranteed to loose out unless they get to AE86 status.

Thanks

Absolutely spot on

.
You will probably struggle trying to sell a 20 year old modified car through an advert in your local paper (where "joe-public" is looking for a bargain).
But advertise the motor on a relevant owners site and you shouldn`t have a problem

.
When I first bought my s12, it had a blown head gasket, knackered turbo and 136,000 miles on the clock. But I knew the guy that had it from new, it had been regularly serviced (before the gasket and turbo blew), it was almost rust free, had never been raced and had been undersealed properly. For me this was worth an extra £200 on the value of the car.
Regards,
Ian.
