Haven't had any interest at all in selling the car so.....
Discussion
* Aircon will cost you a four-figure sum unless you source it from a write-off. Would be better to lower the price by £1k and save the time/effort!
* Suspension softening - can't see why that'd put someone off?!? You got Nitrons/similar on that're overly firm? If so, softening them is only 2 minutes work and can't hurt. If you've got the standard height adjustable (RR and later standard) ones, playing with them a bit might help, but doubt it.
* Are your current seats non-standard, or scuffed? If the former, it might be an option if they're currently CRAZY, but again, I'm dubious. If the latter, a few £ to a decent car cosmetics specialist is a far cheaper option, generally.
I'd suggest your PH advert's getting little interest as:
* There's no actual price on it (people want one to help form a full picture)
* There're no photos on it (people want one to have a picture full stop
)
* You state in the advert it's bl**dy expensive to keep on the road - not a great selling point.
Would re-word the ad, take care of a couple of the typos, mention its selling points a bit more, get some nice photos of it in pretty countryside taken, and stick a price suitably higher than that £18k trade-in you've been offered on it. £19,950, possibly.
And, to be fair, your ad's only 11 days old on there - wouldn't expect an early, private sale Tuscan to go anything like that quickly unless it's got a truly unique spec/truly barmy price.
Hope that helps...

That's what I was talking about - two Duratec engines, plenty of Mondeo switchgear, etc...
