Default HELP - How do I value my car ?

It's come to the time to change my beloved Impreza (for a newer one). However i have no idea what she is worth. Any one want to make a (sensible) suggestion ? I'm thinking around the £7.5K mark.

Impreza MY01 WRX (Personal Euro Import but exactly the same as the UK car)

70K miles , 11 months tax, 12 months MOT. New tyres alround in last 5 months.

Full service history and almost every reciept you can imagine !!

Condition is very good, a few minor stone chips but nothing that most 20K mile cars have.

Modification list:

Interior
Retrimmed in Alcantara
Prodrive Quick Shift Gear Change (Dealer Option)

Exterior
Subaru Body Kit (Grill/F&R Underspoilers) (Dealer Option)
Color Coded Side skirts
Larger Rear Wing (ScoobySport)

Handling
Leda Sports Suspension - Not currently on the car as has just been fully refurbed by the factory.
Stiffer Anti-roll components (ARB and Rear drop links)

Performance
Full (turbo back) Stainless Steel Performance Exhaust (Scooby Sport)
ECU Remap (ECUTek) by Pat when he was at ScoobySport
(HP now upwards of 260)

Brakes
Godspeed "Big" Break kit (Oversized discs and pads, standard calipers) (Discs and pads just replaced)
Stainless Steel Brake Hoses

I think that's all.

is £7500 resonable or should i expect less or more ?

Many Thanks ... Andy

I don't think you would be far wrong at that

Mine is similar to yours, with less engine mods and less miles, Ive been offered £8000 PX on an over priced £14000 vehicle....

Its in the for sale section here £8000, with no bites whatsoever....

free to stick it here, give it a go as it seems a fair price tbh with the mods. The other option is return to standard & sell the parts but is more hastle tbh
