Anything is possible if you get the right person along; if I was going to sell this I would ebay it with a VERY detailed description. I think you'd get more that way than a private sale - £300 sounds about right otherwise and you should set this as your reserve.

Shame you can't keep it. There's potential there.

if they are fixed/maintained/serviced correctly you shouldnt have many problems. Hardly touched mine blue once since purchase. Just upgrading bits that usually fail, so its reliable for the future (better alternator, 12v socket fitted, elec ignition type things)
