Guest Lee81 Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 would think removing the auto box and putting a manual one in would make it more desirable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest tbirdbooboo Posted May 29, 2012 Share Posted May 29, 2012 Indeed the land of ebay is where she lays lol its not too far from me and i get paid on friday lol just thinking that if it goes cheap enough it may be worth getting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kelvinMK3 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 if all the bits are in good condition its worth it. i broke my mk3 (with alot of doubled up bits) and got £1000 plus for it all. the speaker grills in the footwell went for £54 alone. a decent uncracked dash board is worth a bit aswell. problem being they never seem to sell very well when finished. which is why i broke mine. if you get it for the start bid its worth going either way with it really, you wont make mega bucks but for £150 you can't complain.

Guest tbirdbooboo Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 cool well i think if i do go for her i wont break it as i cant find any info on a mk3 auto cab so might be a bit rare etc. ive tried contacting the seller but no answer . nightmare lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kelvinMK3 Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 i had a test model that started life as a base spec 1.3 and was sent to karmann to be made into a cabriolet (i think?) it was driven round dagenham for several months as like a test. that was proper rare but still worthless. i wouldn't chuck loads of ££££s at it personally. however ive bought an auto gearbox and all the gubbins for a mk2 fiesta just incase anything every happened and i couldn't drive a manual. sad i know but i love my fiestas and wouldn't wanna stop driving them.
