I think £4000 is about the most you'll get considering the time of year.
Have you got any photos you could put on here? maybe it will catch someones eye. There have been a few people on here looking for 3.0 Surfs recently.
Good luck.

Spooky
its like my 2.4
nice truck
if i did not already have two i would buy it and its a Burgundy colour too
thats one of the two best colours you know

[a.plasterer]

thanks,i think so to.
the traders always say that its the least desirable colour,i like it and so do you so thats two people!but we no most traders talk sh*t .i like black surfs too.
well if anyones interested in my truck call me:07832 230843
no traders/tyre kickers/gays.

Jesus mate, a 94, 3.0 SSRG for 3k appears to be the bargain of the year for someone! As already said, it has got to be the time of year stopping it selling. I reluctantly sold my 92 ,2.4 SSRX for 2.5k 2 months ago. Looks like I did well!!!!

or peeps who dont like red hey

[Dunno]

Its got to be the time of year, NOTHING to do with colour as my GREY one has had no takers either and I have that up for ONLY £2K, and its had the head done !!

I am waiting to get Christmas out of the way and then I'll have another purge in advertising it again.

You can see mine here

Good luck fellow sellers!

p.s. and no I aint givin it away I'd rather preserve my new one and make it into a play thing!!! than do that.

No your alright m8ty.
Nothing is selling in the car market at the mo. Just look around
at the big dealers, Reg Vardy are giving 5 years interest free
on new cars and massiff discounts on used cars.

It's been like this for a while, Septembers reg change was one
of the worst for ages,all down to the stagnant housing market
or so they say..

Keep it till after Christmas and see if it picks up rather than
selling it for silly money, or buy a cheap run about for work
and keep the Surf for the fun days out and week ends .

Was going to upgrade my old girl but decided to hang on to her.

sorry i couldnt resist this mistake mate ...." ECT REAR SUSPENSION (AGAIN FLICK OF A SWITCH,STIFFENS REAR SUSPENSION FOR TOWING)"


ECT red lines the the revs... e.g takes it tp 5-6 k revs b 4 changin gear

[a.plasterer]

oh,i didnt know that!!!!!!!obviousley!!thanks. so does it increase or decrease the rev range??would it affect the fuel consmption?my dunlop tyres are perishing and not a lot of tread left,if i stuck a decent set on would my fuel bill go down?

ive tricked loadsa people with that rear suspension thing then!!!they all thinks its great!!
