To sell or to break my rs?

Postby rob pace on Tue Mar 02, 2021 8:35 am

not been on here for years and years, Right i dont want to get bombarded with whats it worth posts. I own a fiesta rst and have done for nearly 20 years now, never post on facebook much rs wise or on these groups, without going into detail i have personal problems and all of my cars do cause me stress / depression / sleepless nights and its time to de-clutter, im sure im not the only one with these / who has had these problems, never sold a car before, tried once with my focus but gave up and broke it! and to be fair from reading other posts it just seems to be timewaster after timewasters people suffer with, its on 46k and im the 3rd owner, simple question, would i get more money breaking or selling whole and dealing with timewaster after timewaster? Yes its a 31 year old car and does have some issues, cant deny that or be dishonest. Just want your views guys on what do do as my mind is all over the place, all the best. :Q

Sell in one piece if its tidy - there aren't many left on the roads these days and they're worth a fair whack of money nowadays.

Would much rather see genuine examples sold in one piece than being broken these days.

You can't break it even in poor condition they seem to be making good money. Miss mine sooooo much

With that many miles it must be one of the better ones out there. They do seem to be selling at the moment too.

There is a guy on Facebook that specifically buys RS cars. Obviously he will just fix it up and sell on bit it could be worth it if you want a quick easy sale.

If you can store it somewhere till its 40 years old you can get some wonga for it since it would be mot and tax exempt. For me i got to keep it for 15 more years before it hits its 40th birthday
