its a mint example, problem is its been modified, and to your exact tastes. By personalising it you have limited your markit.
In short, no I wouldn't pay 2k for it, now then you can pick up a stilo, fiat coupe 20vt, bravo HGT, mr2 turbo, and a load of other cars for that price now.

Sorry mate but the short answer is no. I'd sell it for £2k but wouldn't pay that for it I'm afraid. In much the same way that no-one would every really pay me what I'd accept for Shabash!.
Thats not to put down your time and effort into the motor, but realistically given economic conditions, age of the car and the car market, very few people would pay anywhere near £2k for a Bravo irrespective of what it is.
It's a shame but sadly thats how its ended up.
I've been watching the prices of the Coupe LE's and late reg coops (circa X reg) and they are coming down fast, so its not limited to the Bravo market.

well no thats what i thought,i wouldnt sell the car. I know how much these go for. It was just me playing curious george. Respected comments guys
Well ravo... I feel you've failed to identify the engine correctly in this car!
I'll give you a clue... it's a 4 cylinder and they didnt' fit a 2.0l 4 cylinder in a bravo
Oh and you bought a 2.0l Bravo..... in fact you bought 2!!!!
So people do buy Bravo's cos.... they want a bravo irrespective of the engine size.
Hey, some people even buy 2 or 3 and let them grow in the garden too

Shaun, you could probably get 1300 for it, but thats a case of the right buyer looking at the right time.
The price for Bravos is depressing if your selling, trust me I know this one all too well at the moment!
Re the engine size thing, its not just the overall performance 9 of a car I go for, having had a 1.2 and 2 HGT's... the HGT's have a presence and, although they arent the fastest cars I've owned they have been the most memorable and entertaining, and I can hand on heart say its because of that 5 pot... even the old bill have let me off based on how it sounded (granted they had pulled me for excessive noise... I just had to prove I could drive at something other than full throttle)

Hiya sean, i sold mine a few month ago, 2.0 HGT, i also had put alot of time and effort into it as have u, i snapped some guys arm off when he offered me 850 for it, as i had been watching the prices of bravos fall and fall.
I would surgest to u that after all your hard work u should keep it and enjoy it for as long as u can.
The only reason i sold mine was because i have just bought an impreza turbo, I loved my bravo but after owning 3 HGTs i thought it was time for a change and i have never been a big fan of the coupe.
