Sir_DaveThis is not a for sale add, just looking for some advice.
With a second little one due in April the Mrs has finally given in and has decided its time to change her car but we have no idea what it is worth. Looking for some cs members in the trade to give their opinions on what we should realistically be expecting for on her car both trade and private before we go looking around the dealers.
Mini Cooper S (super charged model)
Colour coded Areo kit
Registered on the 29/04/05
2 keys & V5
The Mrs is the second owner from new
Showing just over 90K
Tax - 30/05/14
MOT - 15/05/2014 (Will put new ticket on if we sell private)
5 stamps in the service book and receipts for recent oil changes
4 good tyres
Overall the out side is in decent condition, small dent in the boot lid that can only be seen in the right light and some pretty heavy stone chips to the rear arches.
Inside is immaculate.
Every thing works as it should, no lights on the dash and no knocks or bangs from the engine or gear box.
P.S the works stickers were on the car when she had it, this is not a "works" mini.
So what do you reckon its worth????
Thank in advance

Id say expect £4.5-£5k private for it.
FYI the exhaust isnt standard, & the arches have been colour coded to match the Works front/rear bumpers & side skirts.

Thanks Sir_Dave
Yeah i forgot about the exhaust. The old one fell apart and she replaced it with the Sportex system last year.
She is looking to part ex it for an Astra cdti 150.
Popped into the local Vauxhall garage who offered £2.5k, conversation ended there.
Another local garage offered 3.2k which i think is a little more realistic.

£3.2k is still a massive kick in the balls tbh, get it on TotalMini, Minitorque & PH for £4,495 ono and it will go quickly if needs be.
How much are my wheels worth?
I spent ages scrolling through the wheel thread yesterday. Now I fancy a change of wheels but in order to get some, I'd have to sell my current set to recuperate some cash.
They are 16" Speedline Turini's, I'm not sure whether they are the Cup or the Trophy offset (Would this make a difference to the price?)
Pretty much mint condition, no kerbing. There is a few very slight paint chips inside some of the bolt holes though.
There are 2 Michelin and 2 continental tyres. The Continental ones have about 2 or 3mm of tread left and the Michelin tyres have 4 or 5mm.
4 genuine Renault centre caps.
Here are some photos -
I'd appreciate it if anyone would be kind enough to give me an idea how much as I've seen them sell for anywhere in between £300 and £500.
Thanks, Dan

That Mini looks great, the Aero kit seems to be quite rare...
Re: How much are my wheels worth?
Take one off and look at the back of the spokes - there should be an offset (ET**) stamped in there somewhere.
How much do you want/need for them ?
Put them up for £400 and see if someone bites your hand off....? Or £450 .. see if you get any interest - if no one makes a noise, they're not worth that much .. drop the price a bit.
If you want rid, put them up for £300 and if they sell before you've hit F5, they were too cheap

Re: How much are my wheels worth?
Yeah I've got a feeling they're the slightly wider Cup Turini's but can't remember for sure. I would go look but they're stored away for the winter atm.
Obviously I'd like as much as I could get so I wouldn't have to put as much money into buying the new wheels. Good idea about testing the water at the top end first.
I'm in no hurry to sell so wouldn't let them go for silly money

Re: How much are my wheels worth?
Dan, as you know I'm on the hunt for new wheels
Are you keeping the storms or getting something new?

Re: How much are my wheels worth?
Haha I know mate you can have first dibs if I go through with it
EDIT:
No wouldn't keep the Storms for best, they'd stay as the winter set I guess.
Want a change from the lots of little spokes type so currently looking at -
Rota Grid V's
Rota Grid Drift's
Pro Race 3's
Comp MO6's
Or anything similar

Could take a while to find a set though. I'll probably end up buying them first and selling the Turinis after if I save up

ph2 clio sport 172
Hi guys,
How much do you think its worth if I decried to sell?
02 plate 172 in iceberg, interior in very good condition. Body work also in good condition just age related marks, stone chips on bumper etc.
Engine is Forged high comp 12:8:1 83mm oversize pistons with Forged con rod set with ARP bolts. Performance CamShaft set EDCAM 001 and new clutch and ground and balanced flywheel all work done by Engine Dynamics on 20/06/2011 mileage was 51868 at time of full engine rebuild and is now showing 62134.
Recent work is ktec decat full BTB stealth exhaust, matched upper and lower inlets and uprated panel filter, was mapped by RS Tuning couple of month back with 189hp and about 170 Torque. Have cook sport springs and majority of all parts I need for full suspension refresh so this will be done before I sell car (if i do) Also all disc and pads recently changed. Wheels are standard with curb marks but decent tread on tyres..
Just looking at what realistic figure I can expect, I only drive the car at weekends and don't have time or money to track it and I was wanting itbs this summer but for how much I use it think I would rather be plodding along in a mk1 golf iv been looking at lol...
Sorry for essay but appreciate any advice.
