Bit specialist mate, without the mods (standard) you would probably be looking at 13k ish?? You have obviously spent, what... £20k- £25k doing the mods which means YOU would like £30k for it??

Somewhere inbetween is sensible but unless someone really wants this car with that much power you would be lucky to get £18k for it I would imagine... again, someone who wants a car like this and knows how much you have to spend to achieve it might pay more... it is a difficult one!!

Funny that's the same as I was thinking 18k
What a waste of money o well. I'll start all over again and use the cash made from the WR1 to make the RS go faster :lol:

Should be able to get the RS up to 450 relatively cheaply compared to a scooby. I know my Focus ST cost under 2k to get up to 330bhp and that by changing the turbo others were getting just under 400bhp and claiming wheelspin in 4th... as if thats a good thing... nutters

Stick it on Pistonheads for £13 and see what interest you get... you never know, might be the right buyer just looking for what you are selling!?

Yeah I've been looking on a few web sites and it seems pretty cheap to up the power of the RS.

13k seems a bit low I'll probably ask for 18 ish and see what happens.

Sorry, I meant stick it on Pistonheads for £18k (I think a premeium advert costs £13...) :lol:

Out of interest, how much was the insurance on that thing for you?

How come it was so cheap? My insurance for an unmodded one was about £650 I think...

I'm 36 full no claims and live in Harrogate (the only crimes here are when an OAP 'misplaces' their £1m diamond encrusted zimmer) and was only doing 2000 miles a year... I think I've had my pants pulled down and had an object inserted in me :lol:
