This is a long one, Sorry!
I have a P reg Cinq Sporting in Broom Yellow. It's MOT was due at the end of Oct but I haven't had it tested because I know the car will fail. As such it is currently living static off road. At present it has an idling problem which doesn't effect the drive in any way but you can hear the engine misfire. I was told it was a faulty brake servo that was causing the problem ?!? which will cost £175.
Basically I'm enquiring whether or not I should fix the Cinq of ditch it?
I have had it nearly 3 yrs, and have shelled out for many repairs:
2003 - New: petrol tank; brake lines; wheel bearings; back box; suspension bushes.
2004 - New: cylinder coil; head gasket; rocker gasket; full headlight units x2; many new clutch cables.
2005 - New: clutch and cable; full exhaust from down pipes; tyres.
Besides this when the garage fitted the new exhaust they took off my Powerflow back box and tail and replaced with a standard one, which means I have a stunning SS exhaust gracing my front room floor! I also have needed very frequent clutch adjustment leading upto it's MOT time.
Currently the car is fitted with an MP3 Pioneer headunit, DSL components, an Infinity Amp and custom made red enclosure fitted with a Rockford Fosgate Sub. I have a yellow dash and yellow leather MOMO gear knob and gaitor as well as a K&N fitted.
So what I'm asking is... should I fix? (I'm very discouraged by the car at present as you can imagine!) OR
should I sell it in it's current state? If so for how much?
Thanks in advance guys.
