Question Overpriced ?

I was looking a Scoob on the weekend and wanted your feedback

It was from an official Scoob Garage ! 2000 ' X ' reg Turbo 2000 ! 52k on the clock ! Just having a new Gear box fitted ! Full leather and the rest of it, in Silver

£11995

What d'ya think is this overpriced ?

Oh and the side skirts arent colourcoded

Sounds like an MY99 then if the skirts arent colour coded - I would check which year with them. I have a 2000 X and thats definately a MY00. Sounds expensive to me. A friend of mine bought a MY99 hatch with less miles on and a few mods [ admitedly no leather ] for just over £9K privately. Would expect this dealers price to be more like £10.5K max if it is a MY99.

As above, MY00 does not have colour code side skirts, just mirrors and door handles.

Doesn't sound too bad a price for a dealer.

Cheers,

Ian.

price depends really on if the car is that good and if you want the reasurance of main dealer.

I bought my my99 V reg turbo wagon a week and a half ago from a trader, 68k full subaru history, tracker, £7500, I personally think i got a bargain, there's one the same at a main dealer near me for £9500

Don't think X can be my00. I have a V plate registered feb2000. Side skirts not colour coded. Oh and currently for sale for almost 4 grand less than the car in the original post.

I have a 'W plate' which is registred March 2000. An 'X plate' will be the second half of the year 2000.
Seems alot of miles on the clock for the price the dealer is asking. Make him an offer.

Just bought an MY02 WRX Wagon for £9.5K private

Grey Import, 38K miles, STi exhaust, 2 new tyres, just serviced, front pads/discs just replaced, Xenon lights and various other goodies.

It does need a couple of things doing, but even so a bargain!!

You definitely need to look around first.
