Default Apologies...but whats it worth?

First off I apologize for posting another 'Whats it worth?' thread! I know they can get a bit monotonous!

I would rather get the general opinion of the SNET experts rather than Parkers guides/dodgy garage estimates etc!!!

I am possibly selling my 2004 Impreza WRX with the following mods,

- Speedline Turini 18" alloys with Falken 452's
- STI replica spoiler
- H&S Afterburner Vortex angled exit backbox
- HT Autos front splitter
- Alpine CD headunit with Forrester surround

The car is in good condition except for a few scratches here and there. It has only done 37,000 miles so low mileage for a 04 I think. The tyres are brand new, covering less than 500 miles. It have 12 months MOT and 11 months tax. Full service history although not by main dealer.

Here's some pics.






So please tell me what you think its worth. I have a value in my head but i may be way off the mark.

Many thanks in advance!

Probably £500 less that the list price of a basic WRX - due to the additions, if you have the original WRX spoiler and wheels you may claw some cash back.

Good luck though.

Surely you're winding me up? You telling me standard WRX wheels are nicer than the Turini's?

i have been monitoring selling prices of WRX's for the last month on here and ebay, I would take a stab at £7k for a selling price.

mods don't really add or take away anything from price IMO

Unfortunately you will gain very little with those modifications you may have paid for them but their resale value is virtually zero on the car

Yeah I understand and agree with that Tony but I cannot believe adding what I have can detract from the value as gene thinks.

If thats true I'll be stripping the wheels and exhaust from it to make up £500 on ebay.

subtle mods though, not too overboard, not too far away from standard so wouldn't think they would detract money off for the right buyer, nice looking car, good luck with the sale.

PS I'll have first dibs on the wheels ;-)

I would advertise it for £7,250 and take £6,750 as a lowest price personally.

Lovely example.

Nathan, if you want an STI then I would keep the wheels if you like them that much and just put em on when you get your new car

I advertised a black 05 WRX for a friend. Completely standard and 44K. Offered at 6K.

One joker offered £4,500. There were no other calls.

Possibly mate, I assume you mean cash coming my way too?

Thanks for the advice guys. Will see what comes up garage wise in the next few months.

Graham Walkers in Chester offered me £6750 against a £15K hawk STI. Seemed like a reasonable offer but i think GW can be a bit expensive to start with!

I'll see what my payrise holds end of April!!
