Title: ED30 fully modded - bargain too!
Post by: Hurdy on 29 September 2010, 20:25

Don't often do this, but one of my fellow ED30 forumites is selling his car fully modded for under £15k :shocked:
This car is a beauty, well looked after and has over £10k of mods on it, pity it has never seen a track day from my point of view, but from a buyers standing that is even more of a plus point. If you are in the market for an ED30 3dr manual bullet of a car look no further......

If this doesn't sell at this price I'd be tempted to buy it myself and make my money on the spares :laugh:

I thought the point of modding was doing the mods.

For some yes, for others - they just want a fast car.....and this IS a fast car!

I've bought pre-modded cars in the past - you can get real bargains - the rule used to be, and still is in many cases that what you spend on a car to mod it you take off at resale time!  :grin:

Unless you can find someone like minded it can be hard to sell a modded car - the ones I bought I got cheap and turned out to be great cars as they had been loved by their owners. Same with factory options, you'll only get back a fraction of what you spend on most options.

All my mods live in my garage (apart from my exhaust) ready to go back on the car come resale time.

Back on? Have you removed your mods?  :huh:

Well noted Jimp. When I said mods I meant original parts. Brain malfunction there :rolleyes:

The idea being to sell the car as OEM as possible when that sad sad day arrives.
