Grande Punto My Grey Grande (Italian Stallion) modified lowered

Looks much better dude. Good job!

Cheers

Right guys! I have some questions regarding the value of my car... What do people think my car's currently worth if I were to sell it modified?

What do you think it's worth unmodified? (I'll take the bits off and sell separately)

What do you think is best to do... Sell it standard?, or sell it modified? (bear in mind I have 4 almost brand new michellins on my old steelies.

I'm probably going to sell the GP early next year. Thinking I might go for a Merc C class (c180k) Can get insurance for atleast under £900 Would be a nice upgrade.

reg and mileage?
I sold my 1.2 active, 57plate with 32k miles in February for £3700 modified (alloys, spoiler, eibach's, carbon fibre dash, debadged grill, black roof etc etc), I paid £2700 for it in January 2012 standard. It's very rare to make money on a car, especially over a year later. I would definitely say it's because I'd modified it. But saying that, a modified car attracts a smaller audience than a stock car but at the end of the day it's generally the mileage people care about. Hope this helps and gives you some perspective

Sell it standard mate, the punto is a good first car in this day and age and people won't buy them with coilovers and alloys as obvious insurance will be through the roof. Make a bit of cash from parts and get the most you can for it standard

Ahh I forgot! It's a 58 plate, millage is around 55k. Its the basic active model with no added extras. That's a very fair price! I bought mine with 41k on the clock in July 2011 at £3750.

You bought yours in 2012 stock with 35k for £2700??? F*** thats a good price!

Was thinking that I would. problem is my mate will probably want another £40 to remove everything and re-install... maybe more :/ I'll make a profit of around £100+ on the alloys... Coilovers are almost brand new... (600-800 miles on them atm at a guess... maybe less!)

 

[Gr3g]

The problem youve got mate (no offence intended) is that its only a 1.2 so basically when selling its going to appeal to the 1st car market. So the coilovers etc will put people off as ben said. So you will be more likely to get a better price selling it standard. If possible try and do the removing and returning to standard work yourself?

Cheers Yeah I'll still be on the forum! I'll most likely make a thread for the new Merc in the non-fiat section. I'll update this thread with pics of it aswell I've got a few plans for it already, hopefully it is going to look really smart and mean.

 

[CheltenhamGrande]

Would have been brilliant to go to a meet with my GP before I return it to standard and sell it. It's looking a bit late now

AND WE'RE ON 10 PAGES!!!
