That first post obviously wasn't clear enough --- Sorry
What I meant was - anyone wanna give me an idea of what it's worth .... ? I've had a look around and have seen them priced from a grand up to ?3K at a dealer ! It's a Silver 2002 "02" 45 IXL hatch. Has A/C and an electric sunroof.
We're doing a wheeler dealer type thing as a bit of a hobby as he's bored having too much time on his hands as he works 12 hr shifts, and I'm just always looking at cars. I'm a more handsome and svelt Mike Brewer and he's an uglier Ed China !
Any ideas ....

Mike Brewer would say :- cost of car ?500
cylinder head skim ?100
plus parts CHG ? 75
Timing belts + tensioner ?125
water pump ?45
new oil and filter ?45
coolant ?30
Total cost ?920
Profit ?580
Selling Price ?1500.
Low miles, fsh, new belts, new CHG.
Have no idea of actual figures, but you can put the real ones in, note, no charge for Ed Chinas time, just like TV.

It's potentially a good little hobby which will hopefully improve my mechanical knowledge a bit if I look over my mates shoulder while he doing the work. This will work out well if the sale goes through and we don't find anything nasty. All should be fine though.

Could always offer a 3 months/6 month warranty on the head repair work, providing you sell at a good price and your labour is covered might give punters confidence that all will be OK.
Be another buyer around the corner, all in the presentation and a well worded advert.
Best of luck with it.

So - After the initial sale fell through, the work has gone really well and .
Here she is -
To reiterate - Bought as a project / hobby. HG done. Belts, water pump and tensioner done. New coolant and oil and filter.
28K with 5 previous MOTs
Current MOT until Sept 11 and SORN.
Valeted - drives really well.
I'm looking for ?1600 ono and may take your px if it needs some work as the next project.
