moy24 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Hi just quick question I'm thinking of selling my focus soon and it just has 26k on clock due to putting new engine in. It a st replica has the 2011 st front end etc will I get more if I put it back to standard and sell the full st front end etc.only reason I say that is it hard to px as traders don't like modified cars and I still got all the original bumper,bonnet etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Id say put it back to standard if trading it in mate, Otherwise they could assume it was involved in a mid traffic collision, You will get alot for the st replica kit selling as a whole, Or try and sell the car yourself as it is, However its easier to sell st replica parts than it is the standard stuff.

Garage wouldn't recognise that when buying from me, but they would flaunt it all to buyers and cash in big on the build, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

salsheikh Posted April 29, 2014 Share Posted April 29, 2014 if everything fitted on the front end went straight on then swap it back to the original parts, if work was required then it might not be a straight forward swap! good luck with the sale mate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
