why is it being a 998 a shame. its not all about speed... there is this thing called a speed limit...... most uk roads have them ???

I think he's referring to the fact that 998's generally come five for a pound like refillable gas lighters, as opposed to 1275's which often sell for £300 each.

Still, doesn't change what I think because the rest of the car is pristine.

Lol

I would have said it would be worth more with a meatier engine in it thats all. You are right about the speed limits, so make sure you keep to them.

ive got a 998 mate cant go above them if i tried lol

and if i could find a 1275 id put it in there, just for the fact that say at a junction if you start to pull out and something appears you can atleast boot it and get out the way lol

make sure you tell the insurance people its modded or you wont be covered

i would say 3 mayby 3.5k sorry if thats a dis but the bottoms fallen out of all car markets at the mo.

and i know they dont really compair but you can buy a brand new ford KA from ford with warrety for 4.7K!!

might as well try to get a bit higher as they can always say no and offer you a lower agreed valuation cant they?

my dads got a tr7 and theyre not at all expensive (give ebay a look) he's put £1500 as agreed valuation for last few years but one of his tr7 friends has the same model and has an agreed valuation of £5000. he said just try it and see what they say, thats what he did and it worked. i dont think theres any harm in trying is there

its not a dis mate, its what you think it is worth, its why i put the post up in the first place. obviously as the owner its worth more than money to me......

and well the KA would need the warenty its a Ford after all... lol

[slyoldfox2001]

insurance value and market value are massively different.

great looking car but very personal.


i would say -

insurance £5000 and try to get agreed value

market value £3000 on a really sunny day

Might be worth considering getting BMC to do a valuation for you? linky
