Can you not just buy private? Better deals to be had that way.

What is it you want to part-ex? Try Pistonheads and say you want to part-ex for a WR1, see what happens.

Afghan? There was a lad on here that said he was off out there not so long ago! Do you know him?

I think he pretended to be a warlord or something, smashed up Harrogate?! :lol:

I was looking at these a few months ago before I got my Megane 225 daily driver and they were about 6-8k in various conditions. I think a bunch had been contract hired and were being sold off by the leasing companies, for 6k I was seeing 20-25k on the clock as a rough price guide. Did you have yours tweaked with one of the DTUK boxes to give it crazy torque?

Quite frankly this has got to be the ONLY reason you would want to sell a WR1.

Good luck with everything fella....
