IMHO people love the colour when they see it in the flesh, we get a lot of admiring glances and comments. If you get the right buyer it can command a higher price. My wife saw ours on autotrader and had agreed to buy it before I even got home from work that day!

But then she
is known as the purple fairy! Mine is a 2000 Mora and I paid £3.5k in 2015 for an 80000 mile car which to be honest had been neglected. I don't regret it for a moment and whilst the 2.0 can feel a little slow off the mark at times, if you do the vanos and run high octane fuel it goes well and sounds sooooo much better than a 4 pot!
