Took a look at a Chilli Red Zed today.............

and i absolutely loved it! The red looks soooooooo good in the flesh/metal B)

 

Its an 06 facelift model with full nismo kit with 40,000 miles, 2 previous owners and as far as i could tell it's in great working order, engine seems fine, clutch, electics all good etc, full regular service history and due to have a service next week.

 

 

BUT........

 

There are some bad points mainly cosmetic

 

1. Deep 10cm long scratch to rear wheel arch (definite re-spray)

2. Scratch and deep chip on the bonnet (definite re-spray)

3. Spider cracks appearing on the front bumper and the paint has runs in it on one corner (should really be re-sprayed)

4. Rear bumper is not alligned properly and isn't flush with the rear arches (looks like it's popped out at the top)

5. Interior drivers door handle is scratch to hell.

6. 19" nismo alloys need a refurb.

7. Rear tyres need replacing

 

Its such a shame that its in this condition as i would have bought it there and then had it been in good nick.

 

The guy is asking for £12,750, but i dont think anyone would buy it in the condition its in. He said he would deduct the cost of re-spray from the price as he would prefer to sell it as it is. I have no idea how much it would cost to do the re-spray and refurb the alloy wheels and neither does he, so i asked him to get a quote so at least we he can see how much to drop the price.

 

 

Does anyone know how much a re-spray like listed above could potentially cost? Maybe someone on here has had similar work done.

 

I could make the guy an offer if i had an idea on cost.

 

Cheers

Alloys cost around £50 a corner on average for a refurb.

 

Respray - £200-£300 a panel if its sanded back and sprayed.

if its just scrath repairs, it depends on the repairer.
