Folks ive advertised my scooby for sale elsewhere, and stress this is not a for sale thread!
Ive had an offer on it, and i cant decide whether its any good..as there are some going for less some going for more on ebay and other sites.

Mines a 52 silver wrx, low level spoiler, black side skirts completely standard in immaculate condition, even the alloys have no kerbing, it has a tracker, parrot bluetooth stereo and cobra alarm, 5 owners and 77k miles.

Ive been offered £3000?

Should i hold out for more, or take the money and run?

 

I just 5 mins ago drive past an 02 Bug WRX on a garage forecourt for £2999.....we all know £2750 would drive that away....so what did the trader pay for it....£2k.....£1750??!!


Worrying ah!!....but all suggests 3k aint that bad?

 

I just really dont know what to do....mine's been very well looked after, there is not a mark on it and reciepts for allsorts.....fuoll service history the lot.

That is probably the cheapest one I have seen at a garage! Now thats worrying me!

 

Sell it.

 

Ha check out culloden car Sales website if they have one. Drove past the forecourt on way home from boarding, saw an 02 plate bug eye in the front of forecourt, price.......£6999 haha! Unreal!

That wont sell imho.....i straight up saw one for £2999, but no idea of mileague/ owners etc.....had a head lamp conversion so far to say an enthusiast however was in burgundy red, not a good colour imho.

My mate just traded his WRX PPP in WR Blue with brake conversion, 18" gold oz wheels and 2 owners FSSH for £3800 against an £8.5k car....not more than 3 months ago...

 

Thats an STI, in WR Blue.....Sti alone puts around £1500 on top of a cars price imho.

Granted this is a wagon, hostorically they sell for less, and does'nt mention mileage so will be high.....but all the same it is an 02 WRX with 3 owners only and a big exhaust for less than £3k on a dealers forecourt.....food for thought chaps??

 

So i should be taking it do we think? I may try and squeeze another 100 out of him maybe

 

I think you could do a lot worse....perhaps better but as the saying goes......sometimes "the first offer is the best offer"....but i have said enough, let some other guys give you some feedback mate.....good luck...

 

Only you now whats its worth deep down Always try and squeeze a little more, tell him how well looked after it is what a great drive it is blah blah, wont get a better genuine car anywhere else

 

Ok will give it a go, all in all though if i get 3k for it you think it would be reasonable?

 

Yea I know buddy but would ya not think it's still grossly oberpriced for a bugeye? This guy is notorious for stupid prices. Could be wrong though..

 

Na i would say it was a bit rich to say the least mate, but honestly i just think if something is lets say £3000 on a dealers forecourt, ill be paying £2500....always wiggle room for a cash trade sale......i got over a grand off my Spec D just by making the seller understand the cost involed in a full service, and telling him i would take it on a trade sale = no comebacks at all his end. If your confident most traders love it, makes their life easy, and what they make is gaurenteed profit ...Happy days!

 

sell it cant get nowt for mine

 

scary cheap? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/L-K-2006-56-SU...item3a62e8fdec

 

^^^ thats a non Turbo model...is a lot of car for that money all the same.....imagine what the dealer paid for it....£3k??....max
