Bored doing some browsing on flee bay and it seems that evo's are going down in price from when I was looking only a few months ago

 

Which ones? The 5's and 6's always stay around the same. Presume your talking bout 7's and 8's?

Insurance quotes on evo's can be astronomic..

 

Yup, 5's can be had for a touch over 4k, 6's sometimes as low as 5k!...seen some 7's as low as 6k................not that ive been looking honest...

 

im talking about 5,6,7,8 they all seem to have gone down in price even the tommy 6 i have seen for alot less than when i was looking

before i bought my RS i was hunting for a new car and was looking at all the options and won't lie i was looking at evo's from 5 to 8 and they were demanding some good money but now dropped alot i think

i know there are lots still holding good money but just cant get over some that look great for alot less than when i was looking

 

go on butt go to the dark side i have ha ha

 

I've been looking as well for a donor car for a project & found an evo 6 extreme for around £6k!

 

 

I've been looking at the fq 340's. You can pick up a bang tidy one for under 9k. Considering that just under 3 years ago i paid 6.5k for my IV. I am tempted tbh to go back to evo owenership.

 

Was tempted by an 8 before i bought my Type R, lovely car's.

 

I'm always tempted, my Mrs used to say I was "obsessed" when looking for a V1 a few yrs back, and to be honest an impreza wasn't even on my radar, I did buy a V1, put a deposit on it but bottled it the night before I was due to collect, the thought of paying £16k for a 7yr old import didn't seem a good purchase, 3mths later I bought the scoob and the rest as they say is history... is still love a V1 though

 

iv had alot of evoes very nice cars but last evo i had was evo 6 i was paying £398fully comp now insurance is £800plus so not sure whats going on with the evoes,this is why the evoes are coming down in price cause of the insurance.

 

They have shot down in price over the last year, anything perceived as being heavy on fuel seems to be bottoming out, a mate recently sold his low mileage 8MR for £7.5k, we're talking about a car that was worth £12k just 18 months ago

 

Take a look, not bad for 7.5k, I rekon anyways.

Not a bad price, Isn't an MR though!!

 

There are a few cracking evo 8 and 9's over on Mlr that are running anywhere from 400 to 600 bhp, with prices ranging from £11k upwards.

 

The trouble is it just not Evo's going down in price it's happening to quite a lot of performance cars.

I dread to think about what my Spec C would sell for, I know that you can't expect a good return on the modifications carried out but the market is poor.

 

It's reflected in the "Break or Sell" market. If it keeps going this way, well modded or cared for cars will start to go up in price. You may well laugh but it's happened before.

The biggest market for secondhand performance and hypercars are the B.R.I.C countries, even if the wheel is on the wrong side.
