Having a bit of a dilemma as the engine on my 172 cup destroyed itself yesterday.
Just wondered if a 172 cup fully rolling minus an engine is worth anything or peanuts vs what it would be worth if I get another engine and put new belts/dephaser/water pump etc on it. Could do with people's opinions on value on both
Its done 138k, gearbox was replaced last year (new box has approx 25,000 less miles on it) and new Valeo clutch fitted.
It's on the original cup Turini's with 4 brand new Michelin PS3's, 2 are fitted and the other 2 are sat in my garage ready to go on! Got a spare Turini too. In the last year or so all the brakes have been replaced with Godspeed J hook front discs, genuine Renault rear discs and Brembo pads, Goodridge brakelines and new Bosch rear load valve.
About 2 years ago I had all 4 shocks replaced with brand new genuine cup shocks. Interior is in good condition, even the steering wheel

The bodywork has a few car park dings in it and the bonnet has a couple dents.
Pics are here.
So what do you think this is worth? 2004 Clio Cup in Inferno Orange. 142k on the clock, aux belt done 20k ago with receipt inc previous belt changes but due dephaser. Good condition bodywork all round, marks on front left bumper and small dent on rear arch but paint undamaged Lots of paperwork...

I was thinking of selling it in a few months (probably why it decided to break now

) as I'm getting my Sunny gti-r back on the road, I reckon getting another engine and all the belts and other bits done is going to cost me £600-700. I've also got the original cat sat in my garage which is an easy £600 if I cashed it in which was partly behind my thinking of wondering what it was worth as it is?
