It's a car that doesn't really do anything for me, but with those seats.... I want!

I'm so fickle.
They are just a re trimmed versions of the seats in Clio 197/200's wink

The car has gone through the last year with no problems at all

It is becoming a common problem on these now and is almost 1k to fix
We may differ on what "no problems at all" means...

Stunning. What was the name of the body shop that did the work if you don't minds asking?

Haha, true.

I was referring to any problems associated with the repair of the car, however, point taken wink

Apologies - you've done an incredible job and I was being selectively facetious. Enjoy the car it's fab.

Missed this the first time around, stunning car. And well done for keeping it on the road, the attention to detail in the rebuild is amazing.

Advice please guys, due to relocation with work I'm now having to consider selling up. I have all of the original parts for the car, apart from one rear wheel. Do you think I should sell as is or put the car back to standard and sell all of the parts separately?
One thing that is definitely being sold separately are the seats, just undecided about the rest of it as not sure if it will make the car more attractive to potential buyers or not considering its history.

Hmmm sell as is I reckon and see how much interest you get. If you get a good price then it'll save the hassle of having to swap it all around and then sell on the extras.

Yes I think its worth testing the market as is. M3 is a niche market and damaged repaired is even more niche.

Words cannot explain how much I'd love an E92 M3. Wish I had a spare £20k frown

That's a hell of a car for the money. Don't imagine you'll be short of takers.

Awesome work on the rebuild

Can I ask what you did about the airbags? Simply just replaced them all?

Sold (for the asking price) to the first person who saw it, hopefully goes to show that if done properly catd cars aren't such a burden to sell on.
