alright mate,

i would be looking for offers in the region of £8000-£8500,

i've got a late 98 scooby wagon with 65000mls and a f.s.h

good luck with the sale mate....

p.s don't go any lower than £7800!!

 

Thanks for the help Silverstrike i was kinda thinking in that region but just wanted somebodys else'e addvice cheers again

no probs mate,

it seems that wagons are starting to become more popular!! for me they are practical!! i.e you can't keep 2 big dogs in the boot of a saloon can you??

anyway you should get your asking price as from reading your supplied info it seems a pretty straight car!!

good luck!!

Don't wanna burst the bubble but a straight unmodded wagon with that mileage....










At least £15k

Anyone wanna buy mine?

 

POP

 

£8500 sounds about right to me... what's your thoughts dougie??

 

Sorry, but dream on I have an MY99 (i.e. upgraded model with better brakes, clear lights, etc, etc) with FSSH and 60500 miles and so far haven't had a SINGLE person come to see it despite being in Autotrader for £8750ono (no calls) then £7995ono (a few calls) and on ebay. I have been offered £6000, £6500 and today £7350 by someone that hasn't even seen it yet (so would likely try to get more off ). If someone offered me £7500+ for mines tomorrow I'd bite their hand off. Classic shaped scoobys suck Mines has, as a second hand purchase, depreciated more in 16 months/30k miles than my brand new saxo vts did in the same time period and mileage. On the basis that the values of saxo's (esp vts) drop like a brick you'll appreciate how grim a picture this paints for classic shaped scoobys

 

is it a wagon or a saloon???


p.s classic rocks!!

 

Dark blue metallic saloon (popular colour and door no). True classics rock but I REALLY had to pay for the privilage in depreciation, running costs, etc.

 

your car is lovely mate, and yes it is a desirable colour..but if you search for saloons on autotrader, you will see that they are ten a penny,but when you search for the hatch,well £8000-£8500 sounds about right.. the classic hatch is becoming popular very quickly, and prices are staying strong. but good luck with the sale anyway mate, if i didn't have 2 big boxers then i'd buy your saloon..

 

Was this my old car? I used to own a MY98 silver wagon and I'm a doctor. Sold it to AF Noble in P/E for my STi. If it is, then its a good car.

D.

 

LOL I talked to nobles a few times when I was looking for a scooby and a lot of them seemed to have one 'doctor' owner. Like that means anything anyway, John Banks is a doctor and runs 400+ hp through his poor classic

 

DJB it possibly could be your old car, can't be too many 98 silver wagons with that history, eh??

need to ask pongo

 

it could have been possible,then again i'd be more interested in the service history!!

are you selling the saxo aswell???

 

No sold that ages ago - just before getting the scooby. Nevertheless it was a) a new car (so money lost leaving dealer) b) a saxo! c) a saxo vts - I can't believe that the scooby - having done 50% of it depreciation already STILL managed to lose more money in the same time frame. Moreover when I sold the saxo the C3 was known about and everyone knew the then old saxo's days were numbered.

 

Hi DJB the car is S234*** and going by documents and previuos owner details the name matches yours mate may well be your old wagon and i got it from AF Nobles too.

pongo, you should paint it DBM and put a big spoiler on the roof, then you could sell it to reidy

 

how come you are back to a newbie!!!

 

Also rekon price is a bit high.

I bought a 98' S plate reddish blue wagon, 60k, fsh etc...from a dealer last May.
I paid 8k
If i were selling it now, i'd be more than happy to get 7k !
