Not a lot -

To be honest facelift ones are so much cheaper I wouldn't consider a prefacelift now, unless it was for sentimental reasons :D

I would go in at 500 as a start. Maybe even 450.  :-/

Why would you bother.... Yours is in great condition and has nice new wishbones  ::) ::) ::) ::)

In reality, an estate would be nice but I'd rather have a less battered saloon and tow a trailer as and when required  :y :y :y

If i offered him £450 would that be reasonable especially there are a few bits needing doing.

pre mini facelift, so no side airbags, no steering controls
gearbox not updatable....

due cambelt as you say, plus the aircon etc

so allow
£100 for cambelt
£50 for aircon test / maybe just regas?
sod the heated seats
maybe another 100 on brakes
£50 on servicing / filtes etc

maybe even a new set of boots?

I would start 600ish, but rather find a nicer / newer one

Expensive washer jets  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

As said above.... Stick to what you've got unless you can grab a bargain facelift!! Your Mig is in great condition and once you sort those last couple of bits (washer jet and Sat Nav Screen) why would you change to an unknown one????

I suppose you could always look for a nice pink 2.5 :D :D :D :D

A facelift one in mostly full working order will start at around a grand.  Minifacelift, probably £500 upwards depending on condition.  Preminifacelift would have to be mint to get £500

Makes you sad to think how much they were new. Not only that but the toys and comfort are second to none.

Poor old miggys  :'(

My 98 only cost me £500 inc a new/sencond hand gearbox and it's on LPG

£900 for a pre facelift is way too much
