How much are turbines actually worth??



  clio authentique
As it says in the title "how much are turbines actually worth?"

I have a set of four turbines in immaculate condition, no kerbing, no cracks and perfectly straight.
Powder coated in anthricite with all centre caps the same.

Ive seen loads advertised some been as little as £100 (all kerbed and/or rattle canned) and some as much as £400!

I paid £150 for mine with no tires and just rattle canned, but no kerbing what so ever! then got them refurbed
Got new wheels now and considering selling them, at the right price.

But what is the right price?.. Been offered £125 and asked loads how much i want for them but not sure...

What does everyone think a reasonable price for them?

I understand everybody has there own point of view and some people think they are horrible wheels BUT im in need of help!!

Cheers, Martin. :)

I am a bit of a Turbine man - i have 2 good sets currently but have bought and sold a few sets over the years.

These wheels seem to have gone out of fashion a little bit but use to fetch premium money - upto £450 in excellent condition with good tyres. Even bare wheels with caps use to sell for upto £300. Mainly down to the V-Dub boys wanting them.

I bought a set 2 months ago for with oem caps and nearly new tyres for £150, so shows you how much they have lost value.

Do yours have the original centre caps and locking key? Also try selling them with Renault 5 GT Turbo in the title, this will help you ;)

Just re-read your original post if they are as good as you describe them - i would want £200 - £225. Based on original caps, immaculate condition and no tyres :)

Cheers for replying, they are literally immaculate as i say. All original centre caps but they dont have the bolts as when i got them somebody was just using M10 bolts unfortunately so i never ran the centres. Thats roughly what i was hoping for, like i say though im not fussed on them sitting gathering dust, but il get some pics and maybe post them in the selling part. Thanks again :)

As mentioned the VW boys used to pay silly money for them so a lot of people think they are still worth that, but they just arent anymore.

I bought mine for £80. I spent £200 having them refurbed. Then spent £180 on 4 stretched bridgestones and struggled to sell them for £250 iirc.

They only look good on mk1 clios imo, everything else looks w**k.
