OK so the engine swap on the civic is costing me more than I'd like so I'm contemplating letting the MX5 go and maybe picking up another one later in the year
Basically bought it in sept last year with a view to doing it up once I'd finished with the civic and skidding it about for the summer
It's a P-Reg UK 1.6, in red on 92k ish miles.
MOT expired end of Nov
currently SORN
starts and runs fine. its red, the paintwork isnt great but certainly not the worst, and hasnt turned pink!
Rear driver side arch has some not very pretty repairs and still corroded at top of the arch. doubt it'll be any kind of MOT failure point, I was going to weld a new bit in anyway though as I was planning on rollering the car in matt purple
handbrake has about 3 million clicks so needs adjusted or cables replaced
Has a glass rear window, hood is in good nick with no rips or tears but I don't think it seals perfectly as theres a bit of condensation after heavy rain
currently she is sat on coilovers, with a rough GV lip and my XXRs, though the XXRs are not for sale at any price (so don't count these in any valuations!), so will probably sell her on steels, I also have stock suspension so could keep the coilies too. Steering wheel is a crappy aftermarket one though I do have a eunos momo somewhere
one of the knobs is missing off the radio but it's still useable and quite a flash one, with ipod lead too
So my questions are as follows
What would she be worth without the mods/mot
What would she be worth with the mods but no MOT
What would she be worth if I could be arsed to MOT it with/without mods
Some pics (excuse roof being open)
Since the pics I have put the sidelights back in and the mirrors have been replaced with smaller racing type ones and are black. I do not have the original mirrors anymore
Any ideas of what she might be worth in any of the aforementioned states would be good as I cant decide whether its worth selling up at the moment
Cheers
Mike
