Help!! Engine has gone in my Clio 197 56 plate how much is it worth?

[griffler50]

Engine has gone my Clio 197 56 plate. Insurance has written it off . How much could I sell it for? All help greatly received.
Cheers Ben

£1-1.5k maybe? It'll have an insurance mark on it now which won't help. Ripe for a Meg conversion or track build.

Written off it's worth close to f**k-all, they're dropping into the 2K and below category fast. Minus an engine and with an insurance marker it's very low value

If it's written off then its worth £600 mate

Nobody in their right mind would pay anything near a grand unless it has a cup spoiler, suspension, nice wheels with decent tyres, cup splitter and recaros. You can buy s**t 197's for £1200 running

Who are you insured with? I’ve never had a policy that covers the engine!!

£600 without a working engine or with?

 

[R3k1355]

Obviously without a working engine???

 

[YorkshireKyle]

Without a working engine. If it was a 200 youd be looking at about a grand with a shagged engine and tatty condition without Recaros.

My mate has 6 197's and 2 200's. All bought for less than a grand each. They're very rapidly becoming the next level of 172/182

Does said mate possibly need another 197 with mods?

Why has the insurance company written it off due to engine failure? I’ve not heard of that before!

I’m going with hydrolock after driving through a flooded road....

Can’t believe how much 197 prices have fallen. Doesn’t seem long a go they were £6/7k! I suppose poor fuel economy in comparison with mediocre performance killed them.

WTF?

That is madness.

Saw a 200 on Faceache earlier, a Cup and under 6 grand. Thought they were more than that?

I've seen it so many times over the years . Usually a new member.
They put up a post asking for information or how to solve a problem then never return.
Very strange.
Or you get the other CS phenomenon.
Ask for advice and do totally opposite lol.
