Toe Tags Posted September 2, 2005 Author Share Posted September 2, 2005 Steve, as Paul has suggested, I think you'd still be quids in if you were to buy this one and fit a 6-speed box. This car is in excellent condition - you wouldn't be disappointed, come and see it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Robinson Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 So if I spent the £2,300 on the 6 speed how much would I be adding to the actual value of the car would you say.... Steve PS - Has it got LSD as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toe Tags Posted September 2, 2005 Author Share Posted September 2, 2005 Judging by cars for sale on Pistonheads.com and at Caterham, I'd venture a guess that you could add the cost of the gearbox to the value of the car, i.e circa £14k - £14.5k (If car purchased at circa £12k - £12.5k). There seems to be plenty of 5-speed SS's around for circa £13k - £14k at the moment (albeit not realistically priced for the time of year...) and not many 6-speeds. This car does not however have LSD. Is it your intention to use a se7en as a trackday car predominantly?

Steve Robinson Posted September 2, 2005 Share Posted September 2, 2005 Duncan - the car will be used 80-90% of the time for sprinting in class 3 so it needs to have all the goodies really such as the LSD and 6 speed. Shame because yours looks cracking, but by the time I've paid the £3k needed for 6 speed and LSD I would be deep into superlight money. Best of luck with the sale.

rj Posted September 7, 2005 Share Posted September 7, 2005 There is a 6 speed gearbox at eBay. I haven't been following it, but last time I saw it, it was less than 700£. The price will probably go up, but someone could be lucky... Needless to say that this has nothing to do with me... /regin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
