ok i'm bored tonight and having bumped my for sale thread for my car on a few sites i thought i'd ask the question.
any ideas why it's so hard to sell?
i'm in no rush to sell it as there are a few possible more plans for it. also everytime i go out in it it puts a huge smile on my face.
i know when i modded it like this it would really alienate the potential market for who would buy it, but to be honest there hasn't been a great deal of interest.
i'm happy to keep the car and use it for fun but i was thinking that if i really needed to be selling it then it would be getting depressing 
is the price too high maybe?... how much would people value it at?
all constructive input is great
thanks
tim
link to my car incase people haven't seen it in classifieds... http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=288256

price seems fine to me 
2 things that could be holding it back
1. its likely to not be a massively popular colour, some people will like it, some won't
2. its stripped, which makes it bloody hard to sell

yeah i know it's no luxury vehicle with it being stripped, but that to me is half the appeal really.
like i said i know it drastically reduces who'd consider buying it once it's stripped but it ain't ever going to go back to standard.

Good luck with it matey

Just wait for the right person to take it off your hands. You're not in a rush to sell it anyway.
Once somebody testdrives it, i'm sure they'd want it
