Gauging Value...
#1
first off, not sure if this should go in here or somehwere else, so mods, feel free to move it as you see fit.

ok so basically, same ol same ol, my car is expensive to run, so im wondering how much id be able to sell it for to fund something cheaper.

here it is:

'98 (S) five door XSi
99k miles on the clock
mot till june
6 months tax

interior is standard and very clewan, no rips/tears/burns/fading etc

ac doesnt work

mechanically sound, apart from a knock from front N/S, probably topmount

body is pretty good, apart from the rear O/S door has been hit, and the rear quarter has taken some damage too

bonnet is slightly creased, and the usual stone chips up front

mods are:

yellow tinted crystals and yellow tinted fogs. which of course can be put to standard if it'll increase value

itll be on tidied up lasers, with good tyres, not the steels

ill get some pics in the thread when photobucket stops cocking about, otherwise just look here http://www.306oc.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=20&t=1841

Looks in good condition, but it's not a popular colour or phase and nobody wants a 2.0 16v atm - would guess £600 if you're willing to wait for the sale, 450-500 if not.

Its a fairly rare colour! considering I have only seen it on '97 cars (be them late P, R or early S reg) and everybody seems to like it as a colour! But I would also guess your estimate to be pretty accurate TBH!

haha 1way spamming away after some meaningful input lol

as for the value, i figured people wouldn't want a big petrol, so 500 was pretty much where i was thinking if i just wanted rid.

atleast that'd pay for the car i've got my eyes on right now... ninja

Well it would be rude not to reply to them :-P

And to a trader? You mean part ex? Or a dealer? Probably less to a dealer tbf they will want a mark up on it and as for trade ins you can usually get a good price

About £300 lol..........

Traders don't want old. big petrol engined cars....they're difficult to shift.

Gumtree/eBay/poster in the window will be your best bet imo.
