Ive got a modified saxo tbh its quite shit. What are garages views on taking in modified cars generally? Ive got enough money saved for a decent corsa but want to swap my car in. Do they usually turn people away with modified cars? as i assume they will be hard to sell on or just offer pennies? Thanks

usually they offer a lower price than if it was standard.

depends if the mods are from a high spec model or just halfords tat.

If the car is a shitter they'll barely look at it. When I traded in my Ibiza (remapped and lowered) they just glanced at it and told me the price.

Didn't even walk around the other side of it to see the mirror dangling off by it's electrics

I work in a garage that sells cars an I'd say if it aint to hard to put bak to standard then do that cuz my boss wudnt even look at it if he knew it was modified.... To some garages its a big no no to modified cars because of the risk they have been negleted an thrashed
