if the ex is getting half, then surely it is worth around £500?? ;)

catalunya199 20 November 2003 02:22 PM

thats how most people would feel but its a friendly break so i will tow the line its only fair

Paul Woodward 20 November 2003 02:24 PM

If you took it to a dealer for Part ex I reckon they'd offer you £4,500.

catalunya199 20 November 2003 02:45 PM

hhmm thats quite homo but as it stands what would i get im thinking along the lines of £6500

Paul Woodward 20 November 2003 02:53 PM

You might get that privately, but I tried to sell an unmodded Impreza with 89,000 miles and no-one was interested, most people thought it was a risky buy.

pbee 20 November 2003 03:33 PM

most honest thing you could do is go to dealer explain the situation and aks what he would offer trade in and what he would put it on the forecourt.

whatever the figure in the middle is go for that.

I reckon 5.5k

Fizz 20 November 2003 05:08 PM

I agree.. get a professional quote and in writing so there can be no comeback

Sweet looking car though :D

Well I advertised my MY99 with 56k miles @ £8995 and didn't even get a sniff so that should give you some idea of how low impreza values have gone :eek:

pslewis 20 November 2003 05:10 PM

A dealer, cash buy, its going to be very low - £4k maybe? Its the mileage that kills it I'm afraid :(

If its a divorce case surely £3.50 is a good price.

JoeyDeacon 20 November 2003 05:27 PM

My guess is this car is worth around £5K

Saxo Boy,

Did you sell it in the end?


Andy Tang 20 November 2003 05:29 PM

I would say about £5-5.5k. That said, you could probably free up more cash, by selling the bits off and returning the car to standard. If you don't have the orginal bits, get the buyers for your new bits to part ex the bits they will be taking off.

I recently sold my MY00 with 68k on the clock for £9k. IMHO a realistic price.

Bl0ody hell...prices have really fallen through the floor havn't they!...I am now feeling rather gutted as I stupidly paid 9.5k for my car just 2 months ago on an R plate although it did come with 2 sets of wheels which I managed to get £800 back on. At the time that car was on these boards and everyone was sayin' it was worth more!

Good luck with selling m8 as it looks really nice...I reckon you could get 8k if you autotrader it and r lucky.

halowrx 20 November 2003 07:08 PM

6 K judging by how people react to mileage. Looks sweet though and u must be gutted to let it go.

Prices are a nightmare just now, I paid 6k for a MY95 a month ago and wouldnt be able to sell for that !

Good luck and hope u get it sorted

catalunya199 20 November 2003 09:10 PM

cheers for comments im not selling the car just wanting to no the rough price so i can give her half of the value

Flat 4x4 20 November 2003 09:44 PM

Ignore the value of anything that is above standard - in fact it will put off as many people as it will attract them.
Sell the bits that you can easily remove separately.

I'd say £5500-6000 if it has Full Subaru History. £500 less without


taffyterzo 20 November 2003 09:51 PM

If I were you and being straight with her, I would give her £3500,
only you know the real value of your car, and as your not selling it, you know how well its been looked after and what you paid for it etc, if youve treated it like a hire car then its worth considerably less to you than if you have cherrished this car from when you bought it, I dont even know if I make sense anymore, ah well good luck anyway:)

catalunya199 20 November 2003 11:14 PM

oh its got full ssh i said to her about 3500 to start i think 3800 is a good price

TVR Gary 21 November 2003 07:52 AM

iain atkins 21 November 2003 08:46 AM
