SimonT Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Welcome mate! Have you got a link to where it is advertised as its easier sometimes to judge but you always need to see the car in the flesh to make a genuine valuation etc if you know what i mean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraAyf Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 That looks like a nice spec but the Veilside kit is the only thing that lets it down for the most - some people still like it but I would say they are very much in the minority. Change the front bumper and you've probably got a real nice looking car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Change the front bumper and you've probably got a real nice looking car. exactley what i was thinking i dont like veilside front bumper or the side skirts, worth changing? Sorry its a chap whose local selling it hasnt advertised it, can you guys say a rough guess what its worth, ive seen some on pistonheads and the trader for 10k?

merckx Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 It could be worth 10k but it's obviously totally dependent on condition, the modifications that're on the car don't add any value. Infact fitting a veilside kit in most people's opinions would reduce it's value and for me I wouldn't touch it for that reason alone .

SimonT Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Im guessing its 39k miles?? Yeah lose the VS bumper and the spoiler, but skirts are quite nice in my opinion 10k sounds a bit high unless its a minter but it does sound like a Manual VVTI from what your describing with low mileage so it could be worth that but its very hard to say what a car is worth without seeing the bodywork etc in pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merckx Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 it does sound like a Manual VVTI Anything is possible, but P plate cars were up to July 97 VVTI TT was introduced in Sept 97 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miko_supra Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Just get rid of the body kit and you'll have a jem by the sounds of it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonT Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Looks clean enough to me but cant tell if its a VVTI or not cant say personally that i would give 10k for it though and the front bumper looks as if its been hit or chipped or something by looking at the marks on the right hand side as you look at it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest puregttipower Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 i like trd spoiler? you think price is good? might get it cheaper if i push it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luxluc Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 veilside exhaust, hmmm Veilside exhaust Car looks Ok. VS skirts are not that bad, but I agree that the C2 front is a matter of taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonT Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 TRD spoiler is very nice especially if you got a half carbon one! I think they look great on a white car I wouldnt get too excited just yet you might go and see it and it be a complete dog but i hope its not Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
