2012 C30 D3 R Design
 

As title looking to sell my C30 D3 R Design. It's a 2012 in Red with 95K on the clock, I'm the 2nd owner, 1st owner was a company so the majority of the 87K on the clock when I purchased it, was motorway miles. The car has wanted for nothing, has a FSH. It had a new clutch and DMF in January, a remap in July (is about 200bhp), recent new front discs and pads, new rear discs and pads being fitted at the weekend.

*

It has the usual R Design spec, has the full black R design seats, bluetooth with music steaming, rear parking aids, trup computer etc.

*

In the time I've owned it, it's had freshly powder coated Black Focus ST alloys with new Unrioyal Rainsport 3's, plasti dipped front grill, fog surrounds, and rear badges, Carbon dipped wing mirror covers, handbrake surrond, and centre console, skull dipped interior handles, and CD surround, Carbon Rhino lip front splitter, Blue LED interior lights, upgraded headlight bulbs, calipers painted red, and wind deflectors fitted.

*

The car is in really good condition, and drives amazingly, the remap makes it rapid, and it still returns 45 mpg on my short commute (up to high 40's on a long run).

*

I am only selling as my commute has now more thank halved, and my girl friend upgraded to a V60 (from a yaris yuk) so it doesn't even get used for our long journeys now. So it's basically getting used for 60 miles a week, and it's not worth keeping a diesel for that. So now I'm doing far less miles a T5 is now an option again, so I'll be looking for a T5.

*

Looking for £6000, the private plate will not be sold with the car it will be going back to the original plate.

I would be interested in swapping, or part ex ing for a T5, preferable a C70.

Just to say that you're basically selling my wet dream, unfortunately I can't stretch to £6k until next year! What a shame!!

I'm actually going to look at 12 month cash advance credit cards to see if it could be done. BRB :D

Is the remap detectable by insurance loss adjuster inspections? If I declare that it'll add £150 a year to the premium, and it's the main reason I have avoided modified cars so far. Otherwise insurance is pleasingly cheap, even with the other modifications declared it's only £100 more than my V40.

I really didn't think I'd struggle to sell the C30 :-(, do you guys think it would sell easier if I put it back to standard??.

At this rate looks like it will be getting traded in, been on Egay twice and didn't even make the trade in I'd been offered, and if I trade it in I can return to standard and sell the mod parts

Sadly that'd be the easiest way. People want everything for nothing these days, I would typically change my car every year but with the trouble of selling private I've modded the V50 instead of selling to keep my desire to change at bay. For me, the car looks spot on externally, it's a really nice look you've gone for but IMO I'd put the interior back to standard as the regular R-Design trim suits it better but that's all IMO of course.

It's looking like I'm going to keep it, it's been on ebay twice and hasn't even made what I've been offered for trade in. I don't have a lot of cash to put on top of the trade in and looking at what I can get for the cash I have plus the trade in, are worse options than the C30.

So looks like it's going to stay till I can save up more cash, no point trading it in and having to pay money to get a worse car.
