Title: Ball park figure please
Post by: RobG on 20 February 2011, 16:32:28
MY 2000 on a "W". Facelift 2.5 CDX Estate. 96K, bodywork really good. MOT failure;
Low aim both H/lights (poss, sensor arm?)
All pads low
Both rear brakepipes corroded
Both front balljoints U/S
Insufficient screenwash from both jets
Worn idler arm
What do you reckon is a decent buy price :-/

If the MOT has expired and assuming no tax... No more than £500... I'd start closer to £350 ;)

Is it generally in good nick or not? Leather/cloth etc?

£750 is a lot, can't see it making that. Would need a decent amount of MOT and Tax to reach that.

I'd say closer to £400

Yeah.

But I'm no authority on it, I'm sure someone else will pipe up soon enough.

Find out the book price for it, then deduct the cost to get it fixed.

Ohh I assumed it had the tax already. :P

If youve been offered it for less and its clean body work then probably worth a punt Rob.

Chris.

What kind of price do you get for a weigh in nowadays? (i'll assume 350 is optimistic :) )
