Hi guys, I am considering selling my sil80 which I have owned for the the last 9 years. Although the car doesn't cost me anything, I am a family man now and this literally just sits in the garage all year now, never gets used, and someone should probably be enjoying it.
Can you please let me know what you think she is worth? I've had wildly varying advice from £5k-£30k. I'm not really part of the community any more and have sadly lost touch due to life.

Corrosion:
I am glad to say this car is rust free. Underside looks almost new with no rust other than a bit of surface rust on rear subframe. Only welding done was a 4x10cm patch in footwell. Original sills etc.
Mechanics/Electrical:
All working. No problems.
Paint:
2 years old. Fine other than 3 small cracks which have opened up recently on fibreglass panels
Bad Points:
- 3 cracks have appeared in the paint from 6 to 20cm in length. I have spoken to the original bodyshop about it, the cause is the fibreglass panels moving slighly when driving on the VERY bumpy roads where I live. His solution is to wait another 1000 miles, until the FRP has settled completely, then he will repair the cracks for free. This will not apply to new owner, but shows that it can be fixed fairly easily.
- ECU map is OK but nearly 10 years old, could do with remap at some point.
- Diff is an old high mileage diff from a donor S13(was only supposed to be temporary). It's OK, but the car deserves a proper diff.
- I love the car as it is, but please bare mind that it is a loud/uncomfortable car.
Thanks a lot!
