antz Posted February 17, 2007 Report Posted February 17, 2007 i reckon for £1500 you sould be able to get a mint standard 4 door! maybe a few mods but nothing HUGE!
J_mk1 Posted February 17, 2007 Report Posted February 17, 2007 I agree with antz, thats fair money for a 4 door that needs next to no work to restore the body.
johnboy Posted February 17, 2007 Report Posted February 17, 2007 Agreed. Youll get a tidy 4 door for that money.
xpackken Posted February 17, 2007 Author Report Posted February 17, 2007 prices seem to be silly on ebay at the moment anyone know of anything ... _________________ honey oil
trakevlyn Posted February 17, 2007 Report Posted February 17, 2007 I got my mk2 2 door for £1500, 9500 miles from new 2 owners receipt for £1000 spray job the year before,(see picks under readers rides pg8 titled the yellow peril.) Only problem is it was 6 years ago, but keep looking there still out there i only found mine by accident.
mk2 stu Posted February 17, 2007 Report Posted February 17, 2007 If your willing to put the time in, i bought my mk2 2 door for 800, now i'm going for a total re build but it was mot'd and taxed when i bought it, all depends on how far you wanna go with it!
xpackken Posted February 17, 2007 Author Report Posted February 17, 2007 well i work in a bodyshop and can work paint my own cars etc in my own time so i suppose i can get a little tatty but in terms of 4door for 1500 quid would expect it to be fairly good .. _________________ us recessions history
mk2 stu Posted February 17, 2007 Report Posted February 17, 2007 mate if you work in a bodyshop then get yourself a 2 door, weld whatever panels need welding, paint it and get your arse to the shows!!!
xpackken Posted February 17, 2007 Author Report Posted February 17, 2007 not realy got the time for a project although whatever i get will see some trick paint . got my hands tied at the mo with the mk2 xpack capper .. _________________ grand daddy purple
Noodles Posted February 17, 2007 Report Posted February 17, 2007 got mine £1300 one owner,fsh, 25000 miles
Rick Posted February 17, 2007 Report Posted February 17, 2007 4 door is your best bet unless ur willing to wait for that baragin 2 door the crops up now and again... i saw two old codgers driving a mk2 2 door a few weeks back... wish ida stopped em really and tried to buy it
Jay_harrier Posted February 17, 2007 Report Posted February 17, 2007 A strong 2 dr needing wings & paint will set you back £1200 to £1800, a mint bog standard base 2 door £2300+. I saw one fetch £3300 on ebay this week, not an RS or ltd edition either. The rally boys have driven the prices up massively on 2drs, MK2's do look good but 4drs are better value - there seems to be a stigma from us 2dr owners attached to them.
tonytex Posted February 17, 2007 Report Posted February 17, 2007 mate just sold one today £400 was on ebay look worst then what it was 16 gl
james p Posted February 17, 2007 Report Posted February 17, 2007 i sold my last 4 door that was in v good cond for £500 i could not sell it so sold it to escort tec they are about mate and with the money you got youll gat a good one
