[jimblive]

thinking of selling my Mk1 172 and was after some input on a price to sell it for? for details see below:

X reg 2001 still with manufacture warranty

37k (just had 36k service)

full reno service history

odysey blue (not many around)

full magnex system

needless to say v-good condition



any ideas?

Is it uk or import

Parkers says

£8695
But i reckon you could go to £9000

 

[jimblive]

its a uk car.

quite a few on auto trader for around 8k! but i was hoping for around 8.5 to 9k

i rang the garage i bought mine from and was chatting to the bloke there that i bought it from...

mines done 25,000 w reg 2000.

no warranty as its an early one..

silver

fsh

he said he could give me £8,000

which from a dealer i guess isnt too bad..... i paid £10,995 for it.

what u thinking of getting then Jim ?

 

[jimblive]

thats real good from a dealer!

not sure if im deffo selling it, just thinking about it depending on what i could get for it.

since i live so close to work now (2miles) it never gets used so if i do get rid of it i might get a cheap hot hatch to turn into a little pocket rocket to keep you 172 boys on your toes!

 

[VR6man]

yeah thats what i thought...

it may help that he knows the car as it was his car... i dunno..

get a r5 gtt

 

[jimblive]

an old vts is top of the list at the moment.

 

[VR6man]

cool

then we can conduct our own "vts vs 172" experiments !

 

[jimblive]

sounds like a good idea to me, just need to get a good price for mine.

you still keeping yours?

 

[VR6man]

definitely for the time being....

maybe change after my bday next year.

mine was a 2001 Y reg Mk1 done 32k miles French import. good condition.

Insurance paid out £9200 last month after i wrote it off.

Hope that helps

 

[jimblive]

9200 is very good, dont think i would get much interest if i put it up for that though?
