Thinking about selling my98 and unsure what sort of price to put it in at.
Its got FSSH, 17" Gold 01 wheels with Potenza tyres. Decat exhaust which i may take off and sell with standard. No engine mods and in Red.
Milege, 51k.

Is this reasonable or over under priced.

Cheers

I have a '97 Sport and wouldn't sell it for anything less than 17 grand. However it does have an awful lot of mods on it and FSH!!!

Lucky for U my mate Ted 'Tinks' works for the Parkers Guide. He can give U a definite price on you're car. Charges about 150 pounds for a valuation. GIve us a shout if you're interested.

Parkers has it thus:

A1 condition - £9470
Good condition - £8970
Poor condition - £7575
Trade - £7895

You don't need to pay to get a valuation, mate. See www.autotrader.co.uk and click on the Parkers' website.

I've always found Parkers valuations quite low and they definitely favour the buyer. Having recently done the rounds searching for a car I think yours is well-priced.

Glass's quote the following trade values for a '98 R (didn't know if yours was R or S):

Mileage 50000
Retail 12350
Excellent 10100
Average 9640
Poor 9380

I would have thought you could get somewhere between the 'Excellent' and 'Retail' prices.

Thanks for the replies. It is on an S plate (Oct 98). Will probably push my luck a bit with this and advertise in the trader for 11400ono and see what happens when I finally pluck up the courage to let it go.

For June trade value is given as just over 10, taking into account the above average mileage. This is for the 4d turbo.

Just traded in my 98S against STi Type UK and got £11,500 with 43k miles and FSH.

It had aircon and CD changer but otherwise it was totally standard.
