Question How much?

I'm selling my fabulous Scooby and I need some advice as to how much to ask for it before I advertise...

It's a MY03 WRX (WR Blue) - NOT imported. Not yet 10 months old with less than 9000 miles. Obviously it's still like new. I've got £17500 in mind. Would I be selling myself short?

Thanks

Hi there

Im pretty sure that at my local dealer you can buy a brand spanker for £18,000 OTR. Not 100% positive tho.

Good luck with the sale. (why u selling?)

A new WRX is £20,495 on the road and there are not many discounts offered for new - sometimes for ex-demonstrator.

That's given me a thought actually wrx. Perhaps I should find out what dealers are asking for ex demonstrators. That's pretty much what mine equates to.

Jay - I'm going into business with my Father in law (!!!) and I need to release the money. I'm going to have to put up with boring wheels for a while.

I was offered a new WR blue MY03 WRX for £18.5k 3 weeks ago. Bought an MY03 WRX PPP (+tracker) 52plate 20k for £16.3k from a car dealer so who knows what the original owner got for it.

Salsaking is desperate for such a car, and has a budget of around £16k if you want to give him a shout.

Just had a look on Autotrader valuations and it comes back at £15.7k for a private sale for an 03 with 9k.

Just spoke to my local dealer, the one I saw was in fact £18,495 OTR
It was pre-registered in December and only has delivery miles on the clock.

Good luck with the new venture, if it all goes well, im sure you'll be ordering your WR1 very soon
I know how it is, I set up on my own in June last year, give it another 12 months and I'll be ordering a Type 25 (fingers, toes and everything else crossed )

Thanks guys - I'll drop salsa-king a line. I'll give my dealer a call too, they should be able to give me a ball park figure.
