Hey Chaps,

I know that asking "how much is my car worth?" questions is normally frowned upon but I am seeming to find at the moment that 850 T5 values are so widely spread from £200 upto £1500ish meaning I really am unsure what price to advertise my car for.

The car in question:

1995 855 T5 GLT
Full grey leather
Automatic
One owner
around 180,000 miles, (counter broke 3 years ago)
Everything works apart from the heater which only works in mode 4
Full Serviec history to 140,000 miles then serviced every 6k
12 Months MOT 5 Months MOT

Well I guess £40 is better than a slap in the face.

Im not seeing this as a forsale ad, just asking peoples views on its value.

I must say I havent read the forum rules on selling cars, thought it was just for premium members like other forums are. I was thinking of eBay, thus, what price to put it up at.

Is any member able to advertise?

Yeah it is pretty clean. When I was washing it yesterday all I could count was two small scratches. There arnt even any of those spider web marks you see in the paint when it is in the sun.

Cheers for your help guys. Just need to sort out the advert now.

Hey Chap,

Yes I did get your email. Unfortunately I managed to sell it this weekend through word of mouth. Just need to do a few things before he comes and picks it up like sort the heater.

Thanks for your help chaps.
