I like the sprayed slats in the grill.

5 doors tend not to sell too well but I reckon you're looking at ?300-400.

cheers , cost me 150 quid in total so far ... thats buying it , cambelt , oil , head gasket etc... did some welding on the rear wheel arch yesterday .. so MOT in the next few days.

if i can make 100 quid of it .. it will be worth doing.

Selling a car is all in the marketing.
Its a 1.4 so I'd say its probably too fast for a first car.
I reckon your target audience would be someone looking for a second car or a run around for the wifey. Make sure you remind people that it falls into the lower band of tax.
