The quick question thread
How much would a mk1 punto like mine with that spec sell for generally?
£250
I'm pretty sure they sell for a bit more that though. Beau sold his M reg 1.1 for £650why theyou asked what they sell for and i told you
thats beau though he a dodgy used car dealer, he would give you less than 250 for it
Private sale you should get £400. Just to put it in perspective i sold a VW Polo of the same age with new gearbox and clutch but a few bad body panels for £250 over 3 years ago.
Don't forget modifications generally make a car worth less, not more, as they are suited to your taste, not the buyer's.
I know yeh. hopefully more or less are to the GT standard though, bar a few things. We'll see. My Mum says see what I get for it and she'll pay the rest towards what I want. Which is rather classy.
sounds like you sold it cheap
mates vw polo mk3 he recons its worth 500 low milage
The front grille of my car is missing several horizontal braces that have been taken out by rocks and the like over the years. It will be next to impossible to repair well so should I try and find another one to repair/replace or should I just stick some mesh in there instead and have a custom grille?
replace or mesh either or both will cost same over time
Mesh?
You better not be turning that Italian masterpiece into a rice rocket...If you went with custom, it would be a one off job, and could cost a pretty penny. On the other hand, an oem or repro part could be hard to come across. Just not mesh, please...
I swear to god I am not making it a rice rocket. I'm only installing two extra speakers and that's as ricey as it's gunna get. Just that I'm having trouble finding any grilles at all. It doesn't need to be perfect I can probably do a decent repair if I can find one to cut a few horizontal slats out of.
Was it max brannin. I have been winding my mum up for weeks and she hasnt watched it yet.
no phils little boy did it
Ahhh it all makes sense.
why would a car be harder to start with clutch engaged (pedal pushed down), could it be caused a mixture of a poor starter motor, raised compression and lightened flywheel?

I'd say so! less rotating mass with declutch, so less flywheel energy which is already low to start with, and more energy needed to overcome the higher compression. Plus if theres a worn thrust bearing that could be sapping energy through friction (unlikely to be much though).
