Looking at changing car. Any guesses for my first p/x quote (03 STi PPP, 60k, FSH, mapped to about 340/330, 18 month old uprated clutch, refurbed anthracite wheels, new fr discs and pads)?

£4.5k Feels like I'd be giving it away at that price, heck of a lot of car for the money.

Any thoughts on this what my target (realistic) should be? Was expecting nearer £6k

That's crazy ! I wouldn't even think of letting it go for that mate! Should be in the high 6k region maybe 7K for a private sale if its a good'un!

 

Cheers Robbie. What do you think for p/x? Not got inclination to sell privately and need a contribution to next car. But..............£4.5k FFS Am I being unrealistic in expecting closer to £6k p/x?

 

The book price for part/ex on an 03 sti with average mileage is £5600. So for yours £6K is not unreasonable! Look at Parkers mate.

 

That's where I got my rough value from. Was shocked at the £4.5k offer. Fair enough I know they aren't the best/easiest selling cars for a dealer, but he's gonna get £7k all day long on re-sell, surely.

 

Yea I'd say so. Below average miles and good service items, should be a good seller. Can I ask what your thinking of buying? I keep looking at astra 888's and dreaming of 50mpg and still 330ft/lbs

 

E46 M3. Feel too old for the scoob these days . Might get me well into the (low) 20s mpg

 

sold my 05 wrx blob ppp 28k on clock full service history loads of upgrades
sold it to evans halshaw 8.2k

 

My mates got an E46 M3 in individual gunmetal grey. Its a lovely car, very fast and so smooth. Crazy sideways with the traction off.lol He gets mid 20's average.

 

Would you get a better deal if you didn't have a px ?

Cash is always best to hand over.

I'm sure someone would buy you car
for more than the trade in offer without too much hassle.

I'm looking for a new car this wekend was going to go BMW diesel but might be tempted my a sti on a good deal.

Will put in the for sale section in here, see what response I get over the next week or so. Would rather an enthusiast got a good deal than the dealers. Am looking at a car tomorrow , see how I feel after that and look at timings.

Rear shocks replaced also, so no dreaded knocking!

Cheers for responses guys.
