looks ok to me, if i was in the market i would give a grand, depends on how desperate you are for a sale, be patient i am sure a buyer will come along, good luck

Where else is it advertised, apart from here? Contrary to popular belief, its a bit of a low audience here, to get it more widely seen, the traditional stuff like eBay Auto Trader and Pistonheads are best. However, those ads will cost money, its free here. Also, details in windscreen, local free paper, newsagent, word of mouth, etc etc. Don't bother with the "for sale" area at shows, it too isn't the best place and sometimes they're overpriced.

might be because at the same time you were advertising  to sell you had posts about trying to solve  the problems you had with it…….
         and not having owned it for long , then selling  after nothing but trouble will put a few people off . if you have fixed it run it for a bit longer , enjoy it then sell it ….

i think thats hit the nail on the head tbh - if its all sorted then why are you selling (is what a buyer will be thinking) - stick it on one of the other sites listed and I'm sure it will go in a few days - I'd even suggest a slightly higher price on a non specialist site

Good Luck

Higher price, then accept offers, higher price draws in and then a viewing will allow buyer to make a good offer. Also take pics in a good clean loction on a sunny day!

Hope that helps

Another free site to try would be www.gumtree.com
