Question

I know, i know, feline develops Alice complex and all that, but I'm very curious to know what a 'certain' car is actally worth, in today's somewhat boyuant market. here's the spec

Black 1994 WRX Wagon, 70,000 miles.
16inch Mim Alloys
HKS 'green mushroom' induction kit
Apexi N1 Backbox
Front STi Competition Strut brace
CUSCO Brake support bracket
GReddy A-Pillar with HKS Boost gauge
GReddy Turbo Timer
EBC Greenstuff Pads (front)
Wilwood cross drilled + vented discs (front)
Standard discs and pads on rear.
Broquet

ok, so I <B>am</B> talking about the blackbeast. I'm <B>not</B> planning on selling it, unless someone really, really wants it. i'm just curious as to it's value.

Markus,

I'd be amazed if you got more than £6k for it. Yes, it's a WRX rather than UK, so more power, and yes, it's got a load of extras ... which are worth almost nothing.

At the end of the day it's 7 years old and has 70k on it. The fact that you've modded it a bit means it'll appear to a smaller cross-section of the population than otherwise, and the market is anyway in freefall.

So don't sell it, just enjoy it. My car and bikes work just as well as they ever did, but have depreciated to the point where it's not worth my selling them.

bros,
cheers for the reply.

Much as I thought 6 maybe 7 if I'm lucky.

As for more power, well, not really, it's the first run of wagons, which only came with 220ps (215bhp) engines, same as UK spec, so not much quicker, though I guess you could factor in the mods, but I doubt it'd be worth it.

I don't plan on selling blackbeast, plan on running it into the ground, not literalty, but then some could say that it'll happen coz of my driving style!

The reasons for my question were to do with the fact that I've got some damage to repair, which could be apox 2k's worth, plus how much it should be valued at for insurance purposes.
