How much is a good 172 worth?

[xSmithyx]

hi all i have a 172 in vgc with 12 mot what sort of price are they worth

 

[benhwolves]

Depends on your definition of good. Anywhere from £500 to £3k depending on a number of variables (service history, previous owners, paintwork, mileage etc etc). Have a nosey in the cars for sale section to see what others are going for

 

[xSmithyx]

well for example, mine has 111k, serviced by me, good body and paint work interiour mint no marks rips ect,

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

PH1 OR PH2?

 

[DrR]

Cambelt?

 

[xSmithyx]

ph2 cambelt was done when mileage was needed, car did have service history untill i got hold of it was when i purchased the car the documents were lost, but the car service light comes on with ignition then out when car is started all runs fine ect, but i have done plugs and oil for pice of mind

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

£1000-1200 tops.

 

[DrR]

So not age?

Pretty sure service light is meant to come on the goes off when started? Service light doesn't mean it needs servicing either.

Your for sale ad if you decide to do one will be crap.

 

[Harpham]

A good 172 can be between £2.5-3k imo. Yours does not seem to fit this criteria.

 

[Ol’ Tarby]

Didn't even know the 172 had a service light?

111k, no history = £1-1.3k

Worth more in bits unfortunately

 

[Daz_RT_04]

I'd struggle to release a grand of my cash for it tbh.

I think crap is being generous.

Worth about £800-£1000. Can buy good cars with service history for a little bit more these days.

 

[plymcl172]

No service stamps, serviced by yourself is never a good thing to a buyer

who did your cambelt and when was that. you said it was at the correct milage but if that was over 5 years ago then it means nothing

I would say your car is worth a grand but all depends how it drives

No history. 111k on a 10ish year old french car.

Doesn't matter about bodywork, as for a couple of hundred quid this can be really improved, unless a wreck. The same amount won't rectify potentially 10 years of mechanical neglect. Do you have invoices for service items you've bought for self services?

Going on info available so far I'd reckon £800 tops in private sale. Can get some crackin' bargains for 1400 ish now pal...

I'd say a high mileage 172, in decent condition is worth around the £1,500 mark provided it's got decent service history.

I very good condition example with low mileage and full service history is worth £2k or a little more. Going on examples for sale on Autotrader anyway.

 

[Tunst]

I sold my 172, 90k miles, fsh, belts done etc for £1500 at the beginning of the year...
