reasons why?

well for starters im in ALOT of debt, which HAS to be wiped.
Also, im staring down the barrell of a 12 month license suspension, no need for a car then, and with a long (year) overseas trip happening next year i could do with the money for that (stay away longer!!!), once back in australia ill be moving into the city (suit work and study) and the need / want / practicality of a turboed AU is no longer there :(

theres nothing wrong wit the car at all, its my pride and joy.

suspension due to an angry cop at 10:30pm christmas eve. Reckons 20% of my P plate was in the blue tint of my windscreen, and fined me for "failer to display p-plates" which is 3 demerit points. When your only allowed 5 points in 3 years, and your second offence screws you so badly, and a magistrate lables you as "a reckless driver trying to deceive other road users and police officers", you sorta question the point of driving at all.

You might have to start to advertise it in several papers & mags. With turbo & if you supply the R/Worthy the car could fetch anywhere up to $15,000.
Without a R/W expect a lot less.
The other alternative is sell the turbo & other performance parts seperate & return the car to factory to sell it.
You probly have thought of this anyway.

Ive noticed that the fair majority of modified cars in general sell for a lot less than what they are worth simply because its modified and people expect hassles if anyone gets what i mean.

Sometimes you have to spend money to get it roadworthy or good for insurance such as lifting the suspension etc so thats why some people are reluctant to buy modified cars. If you can show a RWC and your current insurance policy then it will go a long way.

I think you need to name a price mate, and except bids from there.

From what i remeber of the car its had alot of love and car, and performance go into it, and deserves better respect when you are trying to get a price.

Draw up a list of mods, perfromance figures, pics and post it across the various ford forums
