The Gearbox in it has to be replaced which has to be taken into account but i plan on having it fixed for obvious reasons,

the box in it is ok bar the mesh in 5th geear is gone and the mounts are shagged.

How much is it worth if the gearbox is fixed

and

if the box isnt fixed??

Thanks
 
in all honesty mate, alot of the lads waited a long time to sell theirs, and i dont think they got their original asking price.

maybe it was the fact that it was coming up to christmas and everyone was strapped for cash, i dont know.

theres a huge spec list on yours and its one of the most heavily modified i've heard and seen of in ireland anyway. i'd say you would get around 8 - 8500 if you were lucky, thats with the gearbox fixed!

if you were trying to sell it with the gearbox knackered... i'd say you would have ALOT of difficulty selling it, people would know an obvious reason for you not fixing it and that reason is because you can't or its gona cost alot.. for this reason people would probably be unwilling to pay anywhere over 5k i'm guessing, i mean, no one would buy one with a knackered gearbox unless they were dead certain they could fix it, you know what i mean?

people notch up the prices to that so that they can haggle their way down to about 8500 or 8250, they wont get 9 for it! i seen one on carzone for 7000 the other day, silver 98!

how much are you expecting to get?
 
good spec..nice car be doing well getting 8 with the way the market is fro vzr's at the moment...why did you put the clutch in it?..muttly had a triple plate in it if i remember correctly? is this when the gearbox got fcuked?
 
no the clutch went after 4 days of having it so another triple plate in.thats when we notiched the box and monuts were fucked.

so most will be around 8ish??

ive put in 1300 already without the gearbox so its standing lot more
 
i wouldn't advertise for 8k!! muttly was selling that car a long time depends how patient you are..if you wanna sell for 9k just wait..but its tuff when theres 98's for 6500..probably 6 cash.
Its a fine car one of the best examples around but it makes about 7-8 bhp over standard..in real world terms its not a whole lot
 
the car sound's like a gearbox shreader to me, my mate's civic vti eat's gearboxes, he has gone though 3 in 3 year's at a cost of £500' ish a go, i would get this fixed before selling and not mention it to the buyer

true.. i'd do the same, as i said before, no one will buy a car that they know has had major previous trouble.. i knwo its had a lot done, but as dagnut said, it is only a few hp over standard.. good luck with the sale anyways..
