For those of you that have followed my trials and tribulations; I have now decided to sell the Cinq.
Having been ripped off when I bought it, I could do with some honest advice on what my car is worth at present, bearing in mind the repairs needed.
The Cinq is 1996 Sporting model with lowered suspension, super chip stage 1, full body kit with blue tinted windows and twin exhaust(pic available in Gallery under 'J' for Jetsfan). I have just spent loads on it having new brake cables, brakes, wheel cylinders, exhaust repaired, rear gearbox mount, repaired sump, twin spark coil pack and new oil filter.
The cinq has a significant oil leak (believed to be coming from the rear crankshaft oil seal, but could be from sump gasket as the leak is above the flywheel). The handbrake still needs re-doing, it needs two new drive shaft gaitors and two new rear tyres and a new spare wheel. The car has a huge scratch down the driver's side, courtesy of 'darling' kids with keys and where the body kit has been attached could do with some tlc to make it neat.
Car drives fine and I love it, but due to the dishonesty of the previous seller and therefore the unexpected costly repairs I can no longer afford to keep it as the 'cheap runaround' it was intended to be.
The car is MOT'd until 16th May and the tax is until end of June (I think).
Ideas on how much to sell it for would be appreciated. I'm sure a cinq enthusiast will probably be able to do most of the work themselves and save a fortune (topping the oil up is about as technical as I get!!!).
Many thanks
