Sorry m8, Garry only achieved marginally more than that for a 99 with a similar if not better spec. Sounds a sweet car but as Spudgun will testify the enhancements don't hold their value.

Had mine 2yrs dropped nearly 10k (p/x against a P1) thus no P1 yet.

Houses usually don't move that quickly so maybe u don't need to panic?

Is it one owner, prior to you?

i hate to say it, but
...cheer up deerhunter, oh what can it mean, to a daydream believer and a hopeless part ex deal! sorry mate, couldnt resist.
ok, serious bit..
i sold x reg my00 with the following
ppp
prodrive spoiler
17" wheels with p zeros
colour coded everything
prodrive suspension
10 stack sony cd with dash mounted cd player
aircon
only did 3.7k miles
sold to dealer for 17.5k
believe me mate, his WAS the best offer. some offered as low as 13k
the only reason i let it go was because he did me a great deal on his car. i miss owning a scoob, i dont miss the my00.
if you REALLY have to sell, then do it. a house comes first IMHO. BUT, you may be suprised what youre offered by the filth masquerading as car dealers..i hate 'em all!
whatever you do, i wish you all the best. a house and family comes first,so do what u gotta do, then when sorted, buy another ( like me )

Might be worth putting the car back to standard/swapping bits, as the car won't really be worth much more with them on. But there is a good demand for gold wheels (ask pslewis) and prodrive goodies! Has the supplying dealer offered you a price? Always bad having to sell a car so quickly, good luck, afraid I think the price would have to be lower if a quick sale is needed.

Hope you have better luck than me. MY96 Series McRae 50k miles bought for £13k 7 months ago, spent over £1500 on it, dealer offered to buy it back for £9k. He reckoned the McRae was worth around 15% more than a standard UK Scoob. Dealer has a MY97 R reg 40K miles on his forecourt for £13295
I finished up part exchanging mine for £9500.

Nobody wants Scoobs at the moment, market is crap.

Sorry if I've hijaked you sales thread.
