MY99 UK turbo
Can you let me know how much more I am likely to get for my car with the following bits fitted or removed??
P1 upgrade front brakes (330mm) Prodrive
PPP ECU
Prodrive quickshift
Prodrive wheels (various) 17" & 18"
Eibach springs
Scoobysport exhaust (downpipe, centre, backbox)
The above is what is has currently. I am selling in September and basically wondering if they are worth leaving on or taking off. I obvoiusly want as much for the total as possible and I am not bothered about a few hours work swopping bits.
Cheers
Rich

Those are all bits that would sell a car IHMO, ie, they are all quality bits that people are after and sccobs are hard to sell.
Having said that, you could sell that lot for a fair bit and would see more by selling separate,

Micka, check the thread in parts for sale. The ECU is listed in there with prices etc, although I do not know if I will split yet.
MB - That is my dilemma. I know if I was buying a car I would only want very sensible mods ad that is what I have done to mine. They all cost a fortune and I know I won't get my money back. I have the decision to make, should I ask a bit more for the car with everything on it or do I strip the expensive bits.
If I leave everything on it, someone will get a serious bargain.

I fit were me, id leave on the quickshift and springs as these are low value, and also make little or no insurance difference.
The brakes are worth a good few hundred if in good nick, standard ones go for £300.
Full decat is probably worth around £400
ECU worth a couple of hundred.
Wheels depend.
Add that up and you have near a couple of grand. Put the car up a bit cheaper and it will sell. Trouble is the mods will only appeal to people on here, the Autotrader market may be scared off by them, and cause an insurance hike. You need to make it as sellable as possible. Maybe leave it on here for a couple of weeks, and if you get no joy, strip it and put in the trader.
