My Cobra Interior

[TimD]

I'm looking at getting rid of my interior in favour of a standard setup and a nice fixed back seat for track use.

Now i just did a search to see how much the front seats are worth new. Now as far as i'm aware the seats were trimmed by cobra themselves. Leather sidewinders are circa £500 each :\

I would imagine the rest of the interior retrimmed would of cost atleast 500 quid could of even been upto 1k.

Now that is alot of money i don't for one second hope on getting anything near that much on resale.

Can someone give me any ideas of what YOU would be willing to pay?

It's all in good condition, comes with subframes and retrimmed parcel shelf.

that car used to belong to one of the max power staff didnt it, im sure i remember him having this done when i used to read it? maybe back in 2000?

 

[helms]

that was a yellow Leon, and it had 4 bucket seats. ( iirc )

 

[davidol]

nah the bald one who had a grey saxo beforehand had a mk3 yellow ibiza cupra deffinately

oh Dave...max power....u dawg!

 

[TimD]

Apparently so, although the guy i bought it off kept it quiet!

Thats what you get you see for NOT reading Max Power!

Very nice interior, I've always loved those seats!!

 

[TimD]

So come on guys, how much?

Would £700 + Your Interior be reasonable?

 

[TimD]

Or should i aim higher?

I'd say that sounds okay, maybe even more.

nice car btw, i was looking at that when it was for sale but was too far away.

 

[davidol]

dave knows everything

 

[TimD]

I'll see

I'll try for £850 plus some seats. You can pick up front seats and subframes for that sort of money perhaps a little less.

 

[acidstrato]

only problem is that i dont think anyone would be bothered to pay that much for it sorry u might find the right buyer but otherwise cant see it feeling over £500

 

[TimD]

Not everyone wants bucket seats, i understand it's a bit of a niche market. But there will someone out there who likes it..

Like i say i'm not desperate for the money, and i like the interior. I'm more track focussed than bling so it would suit someone elses car better

I'll hold out for what i think they are worth!

 

[bazza1000]

U should get that money fairly easy I'd say. The seats alone are worth a fair bit, let alone in leather etc

I know the lad who you bought it off mate, and yes it was done by Max Power, but it'sa lovely car. Interior is nice, but I don't really seeing you getting that much for it. There's only so many yellow Ibiza's out there, so not many possible buyers... Lovely Tarox brakes on that car tho!

 

[TimD]

There are plenty of yellow ibizas is a case of finding someone who wants a matching yellow interior, hehe!

I'll put it up for sale properly next week. I'll take some more photos and see how we go. I'll be open to offers also.

I'll probably pop them on ebay too.

 

[Mark@VAGWORX]

That would finish mine off nicely. I'd say £850 is too much to ask though. But then again, if someone wants them, then they'll pay the money.

Friend of mine has just picked up a pair of copy Recaro Speeds for £300, just for comparison.

 

[bazza1000]

Whip them on ebay someone will buy em, yellow is quite a popular colour for ibiza's so you should get plenty of interest.

Yours is the maxpower car which ran the famous whooshy dv which has caused so many debates lol!!!! (sorry for bringing that up ha ha)

 

[TimD]

Offers around £750 now

Ohh yes the wooshy dump valve :\ Bought a 007p the day after i picked it up!
