I'd get that leak checked out before even dreaming of selling the car... Nobody would buy a car that stinks of gasoline before you even start the engine.

Am I a light sleeper or a heavy sleeper? Well that depends on how much I've had to drink...

if its not a leak, it will be the fuel cap isnt sealing.

Good point. Could be a possibility. The way to check that is to open it after driving the car a few miles, as it's an injected engine with an in-tank fuel pump, the system will pressurize, if the cap is sealing ok, it should hiss when you open it. If it doesn't, it's the cap.

Although hissing could be down to the fuel tank breather pipes not doing their job properly...?Cavalier342 wrote:Good point. Could be a possibility.

No it should hiss, it means the system is pressurized and no air is entering or escaping.

Hard to say really. Looking around the £400-500 mark depending on tax.
