Swap for my s2 escort rs turbo. Not sure how much these cars are worth etc any ideas if this would be worth a swap?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/NISSAN-PULSAR-GTIR_W...1QQcmdZViewItem

It's no longer on ebay, my car is on there and the new owner of the gtir has asked me if i would like to swap plus he gives me cash

[RA Dunk]

defo no i would say, maybe they are fast but there nothing but loads of trouble and expense, if you r after a fast car you already have a blue one sitting in yer drive, add a few choice mods and your all set

[scoobyiain]

Not looking to keep it just having trouble selling my rs, thought this may be easier to shift.

[RA Dunk]

hmm i dunno, they have a bad reputation for trouble you might end up worse off if ya take it

[scoobyiain]

Any idea how much it would be worth?

[RA Dunk]

not a clue [:S]

[scoobyiain]

Looking to get £3250 for my escort for the last 2 months but no takers [:'(] Not in a hurry for the money but it would always help. The gtir has rather high mileage compared to my s2 and does not appear to be in as good condition, power is the only thing the gtir has going for it so far. Think i should just be patient.

[RA Dunk]

i would say yea just be patient, some collector might snap it up if it`s in good con

[scoobyiain]

Would prob get more from a collector but not at this time of year maybe that's how i've had no interest in it yet. it is in seriously good nick for an 88 plate

[craig_harey]

what specs your rs and have you any photos?

[scoobyiain]

Check out ebay item no. 230069568268

Not very good pics sorry

Nice car Iain, but why is the bonnet sitting proud at the windscreen side on nearly every picture?

Edit: ignore me, i've just spotted why. D'oh!

[scoobyiain]

Have put blocks under the bonnet hinges so it sit like that and enables more heat to escape the engine bay. Quite a popular thing with rs cars.

The Pulsar does have a bad rep but that looks like its the limited edition model, its colour is called green something or other but it actually looks grey, or it could just be grey. If your just looking to sell it on your prob best keeping the RS as it is rarer if its in mint condition and more sought after , Plus bad time of year to try move a car on ,  just a case of biding your time.

[dougster]

I'd love that RS!!

You need better pictures to show the quality you claim.

[scoobyfuzzy]

id have the pulsar anyday, before the rs

[dougster]

[scoobyfuzzy]

This forum software is SO bad it must be embarrassing for the people who designed it.

How are we mean to view pictures ffs!!

I'd have that off you in a minute but those bonnet lifters look ridiculous.

Fancy a swap for a Civic...............[]

[scoobyiain]

The bonnet lifters can be taken off in 2 mins. Sorry no swap for a civic but £3250 will get you it []

[gus the bus]

Keep the RS and get yer money in the spring. I like the pulsar but canny help but think you'd be buying/changing for trouble.

Defo the right move m8.......it'll sell next year....

Have you tried to sell it in RSOC

[scoobyiain]

Yeah have tried it there too peter but no cars are selling at this time of year as most rs enthusiasts don't run them during winter. guess i have just picked the wrong time of year.
