That's what happens when you don't excessively pad out the profit margins.

Could you collect from London? though I am waiting to my pass my driving test so it might be a little while. But max around 2000 quid seem very reasonable

I'd send a courier via shiply for a London collection as it would work out cheaper (approximately £250)

I picked up a set of brand new Uniroyal Rainsport 5 15” tyres for £200 for mine.

If you’re wanting all gaskets doing, full service, including brake fluid, radiator, plus brake discs and pads etc etc, I reckon you’re looking at £1k

Like idk if that is enough after that engine hasn't started since 2002, as I suspect it needs a full rebuild

Doesn’t necessarily need a full rebuild if it was in good serviceable condition when it was laid up!

Be interested to see pics of your car!

How much would a respray add to that price?

There’s been some talk of resprays on here recently - it seems the figure is anywhere from £3k to £5k

Extra? It doesn't need it, just a clean I just thought it might look nicer

That won’t even be a bare metal job either for that money!

Paintwork (and crucially, good quality paintwork) costs. The adage “Cheap, quick, good; pick two” is never more appropriate than when discussing bodyshops!

A high quality paint job takes a lot of prep time, and time costs. Someone quoting a grand for a respray will leave you with a rubbish looking car at the end of it.
