What price shall I advertise it at?

[Carrera2]

I'd be interested in your opinions on pricing my car to sell privately.

It's a 996 C2 coupe
1998 R
80k miles
stereo upgrade
sunroof
midnight blue
grey leather
clear lenses
17" wheels
New discs all round
New clutch
New d/m flywheel
FOPCSH
10 months extended warranty remaining
11 months Mot
and a new gearbox (to be fitted under warranty at OPC tuesday)

I was thinking £23k......what do you think?

[magic torch]

With the warranty, all the new bits, and clear lenses I recken you'd get a bit more.

[fidgits]

hmmm....

don't suppose you could email some pics to me?

[DucatiGary]

23k should be a steal with replacing the disks all round opc warranty etc, id prolly put it at 25 ONO and see what interest you get.

[x15 jeb]

Agree. If the car is generally in good nick then £23k looks a bit light to me. I'd go for at least £25-£26k.

[Carrera2]

Hmm, interesting....that's cheered me up a bit.

Fidgits - I'll try and dig some out later for you but here's a filthy one of it to give you some idea of colour....(shameless plug )

There's a few I'm interested in but black seems harder to find.... Unfortunately Nervy I can't do what you do and buy my new cars first then worry about shifting the old one(s)

[nervous]

ah, i see.

ing peasant.

[fidgits]

I prefered it when the numbers were the low 20's rather than these mid 20's I'm hearing...

but thanks for the mail Dave.

[nervous]

worth the stretch tho fidg, its a nice one.

[fidgits]

yeah, i missed the FPSH and warranty on first pass

Mind you - I wont be able to extend that will I? (being a '98 car?)

Yup - another 2 years left

Got your mail btw - will send some pics this evening or tomorrow.

guess the only downside are the 17" wheels. Easily rectified though. How come it needs a new gearbox?

Bearings have failed in the original one apparently.

Apparently they sometimes jsut replace the bearings but they're doing the whole transmission which I guess is a good thing.

Just my 2p worth I bought mine just over 1 month ago and it is almost the same spec (same colour, 72k mileage, clear lens, sunroof ) but no warranty and 18 inch wheels. It was listed for £24k and I eventually bought it for £23,200 in order for it to get the evil oil leak thingy (not mentioning the name) done to give it the warranty. I looked around for a good 6mths and was happy that I picked up a good deal.

I reckon you should put it up at £25,500 and accept around £24,500-£25,000 for it. I'm, assuming excellent paintwork/interior and full OPC history....

Good Luck !
