I've added PPP, ProDrive Handling Pack, Scoobysport to my car (V Reg Jan UK Turbo) and 17" ProDrive wheels.

My dealer has just told me he's not willing to offer anything above the normal resale price of a standard UK turbo - eg. he won't give me anything for the mods I've done.

Is this the norm with Scoob dealers, and if so, what sort of price should I ask privately for the car?

Sell the parts separately

How much for the PPP?

Do you still have the original bits? If so, replace them and sell onto the dealer...then sell the individual bits seperately...

The dealer's trying to pull a fast one !

Just look at the dealer prices of modified cars - outrageous !

Try a different dealer ?

I know the 'value' of mods is questionable but I think the advice to sell separately is a good idea.

Puff's right. Sell the bits separately. I've done similar mods to my car as you have, and I've kept all the original bits to stick back on when the time comes. (Question: which 'old' upgraded bits will fit on the MY01 car?)

If you haven't got the original standard parts, it would be worth getting them off the For Sale section here, or even a scrappy. It's hassle I know, but you'll be well ahead on cash.

1) Well, I can take the Scoobysport full exhaust system off.

2) Whats involved in removing the PPP ?

Oh, and what do you think is a realistic price for selling each item ?

Tell you what...

One of you offer me £21k for my 10 month old Imprezza with PPP, Handling Pack, 17" Gold GT2's, and Scoobysport full exhaust.

Its a bloody bargain!
