how much do you honestly think my MY00 classic is worth as i need to sell it

registered dec 99
mileage is only 42,000
dark blue mica
completely standard car
only 2 owners

I intend to sell this privately

 

I have just bought a MY2000 UK Classic, totally standard, Mica Blue with 33,000 miles on the clock and 2 owners.

I paid £9200, which I think is a bit over book but its a minter and it was round the corner from my house. Id say aim for the £8800 - £9000 mark. If its as geniune as it sounds then hold out for as long as you can.

Look at the prices in the Trader ............ thats going to be more accurate than any guess on here.

You MUST have a price in mind ...... just put it up in the For Sale at the price you want - it's simple really!!

Pete

 

thanksfor you replies

i always thought places like dealers, autotrader and parkers were a load of b*llocks, and that a lot of the prices in there are pure fantasy. (overpriced)

thats why its interesting to hear what real buyers like simon paid
Alos id like to hear from real sellers as well

I honestly have no idea of price as I dont follow the second hand market

 

Most people go by Parkers Guide. I bought a MY00 last August 2004, with PPP fitted at 50, 000 miles, mica blue. It isnt mint cause it has been driven daily, so stone chips, but full service history, I would say it is very good condition. I paid £7500 for it which was £300 - £400 below book then for a minter, which mine isnt! Just giving you an idea, at the end of the day people will pay what they feel is appropriate, good luck.

 

I'm paying 9000 for MY00 with PPP. 28,100miles. FSH. From Subaru with Subaru Approved Used warranty. Looks like a minter to me. I'm happy.

Pre-delivery service into the price was said to be fairly big, i.e. all oils, new pads and new rear discs.

 

Mine was private sale, check Parkers Guide, most people check that before even phoning up about a car as a price guide. Lets face it in 3 years of ownership Subaru halfs in resale value, like most cars.

 

mate sold his silver 4dr my99, 45k PPP fssh 1 owner for 7k 3 months ago. Its only worth what someone will give for it

Simon

 

Exactly, its reality im afraid.

 

New rear discs after 28,100 miles. Wasnt driven hard then.

 

Yes probably. Owner was from Lincolnshire. All long straights and 90 degree bends!

 

Someone can take my mint MY00 UK Turbo off my hands for £6250...

 

Problems? or is that the real price I should have paid?

Of course you'll tell me all about the problems

 

I've never driven standard, I can only compare with 200SX Nissan.

60 to 100 was nice. Squirted past 4 cars on a 400yard dual carriage way on the 1/2hour test drive. Made me smile.

I wouldn't have tried this in the Nissan!

 

Yeh, they start to run out of puff above the ton, which is good thing really. Will get up to 120 mph with no hestitations. You wont regret buying it anyway, apart from the hole in pocket from fuel costs and tyres. Enjoy

 

If its White or MicaPink then I can understand .....

Mileage a tad high is it?

Sounds too cheap for my liking - must be a reason, let us know!

Pete

 

What's up with White?

 

Its as gay as Gold wheels!!!!

PLEEEEEEEZE don't tell me you have white with GOLD wheels???

I don't mind Gays BTW ............. its just a limited market!

Pete

 

There is no catch!! It has done 117K carefully driven miles which obviously affects the price. It is however a completely unmodified, very clean example with a full Subaru service history, 4 very good Eagle F1’s and very effective Air Conditioning. If anyone wants a genuine bargain, PM me your details.

 

117k

Holy fooooook!!

Mind you, I have no fear of starship mileages .......................... but EVERYONE else seems to!!

Trouble is, I guess you can get a 50,000miler for £1000 more (which isn't that much extra) ........... yours could be the better example - but the punters want low miles and low owners!

Pete

 

I forgot to say.................It's a Silver Saloon

 

Silver - nice!!

Saloon - shame it wasn't the faster Wagon, but still - good price!!

Pete

 

People are wrong to assume mileage means problems on the later cars. All the engine problems were sorted on the MY00 cars and they go on forever if looked after. My car drives like new, I just set the trip counter display and enjoy the drive.

 

And I bet your car never had the "**** oil change method"
