Should i sell and buy a heavily modified car????

PM JimO - He was in exactly the same position and ended up with a modded coupe.

You haven't said anything about the car you're thinking of buying. Surely that's what will decide your actions - if you have to have it, you'll sell your current car, & if you don't, you won't. Personally, I wouldn't buy a heavily modded car, as I think they're potentially unreliable & will never fetch as good a price when you come to sell. Plus IMO the more you mod a car, the more you detract from the original balance of the design. But that's just my preference - each to their own.

Hello *waves*

As Kenno says, I was faced with a similar choice, I had a mint std coupe, but wanted a modded coupe. So I just took the plunge, but I am very decisive when it comes to things like that. I must say I now love my car, I love the power difference, the noise, the speed - everything about it. To mod a car to the stage that Rogers is at, will cost you a bundle of money. I have driven Rog's car and it is awesome, very quick.

2 things I found is:

1. I sold a relatively new car, with low mileage for a P reg with double the mileage. And to be honest, I was a bit sad to have "just another" coupe, but that only lasted about a week. But I still think how much nicer a Y reg is than a P reg. Its just a status thing

2. My current car is not as modded as Rogs, but is fairly heavily modded. And the whole experience becomes alot more "raw". When you come from a std exhaust to a 3" decat (obviously not me officer) system it sounds different, when you come from a car on std springs to one that is lowered, the ride is different, etc. I am not saying it is worse, but by no means is it as smooth. Modded to std is like chalk and cheese to a degree. So you need to think can you live the noise, the harsher ride, etc. For me this isn't really a problem as I do maybe 200 miles a month in mine.

But overall, I am very happy with my decision of going from my Y reg to where I am now. So happy in fact that I thinking of selling, but thats for a different post

who said that

Its something I am thinking of, but for once I can't decide when I decided to sell last time, I had made my mind up in about 30 seconds, so I guess the fact that I am struggling means I don't really want to do it. I might put it off until next year, then again I might not

Ive decided to stick with my car for now. Im more than happy with it and think if/when i choose to go up the heavily modified route ill go for something like an Evo.
