U thinking of selling it

[t5 pete]

This has to be one of the worst whats it worth thread.
can we have normal details and pictures

[inde_house]

Hello all.

Its someone that I know owns the car. Just wondering what they could sell it for.

Excuse the ignorance on the shade of blue. Its bright blue similar to sonic blue for that year of car.

As for pictures I aint ever worked out how to load pics onto this forum from my phone.

[inde_house]

Other details for t5 pete - it has black wheels. A spoiler and some sort of black film glued to the inside of the windows. I believe that the youngsters call it tinting.

[t5 pete]

And thats about as good as a choclate fire gaurd its worth a curly wurly thats out of date

Inde-House, does the car look like this....




You need to tell us the model year (this makes a huge difference as there were 3 phases of the P1 R)?
Manual or auto?
Single or twin rear exhaust (one on the n/s or two each side)?
The wheels were never painted black from factory, they were Anthracite, which is like a mild gun metal grey colour.
Does it have the original wheels? They should be 5 spoke flat wheels called 'Satellite'. The ones pictured above ^^^^^ and will have the R embossed into one spoke.
Colour interior?
Any damage, paint defects etc etc?

Then we can come in with what it's worth. The car, if original, is very rare and in Laser blue very sought after so how much it's worth can vary considerably.
Condition and FSH will go along way to ensuring it's worth top dollar.

Here's the wheels for clarification...

Lee t5 whats that car worth now in the picture s

[inde_house]

Hello lee. I was not aware that there were so many variations of the v70r. The car in question does look like that.


whats that worth
the car in question is an auto. With a cat back twin exhaust. One either side.

No.map. no rip kit. And I do believe that the wheels are the same as that but painted black.

Hi Abdul, thats's a very good question and I appreciate you asking me. Unfortunately, I cannot answer it because I sold that car back in Jan 2010. I bought that car way back in 2006/7 and I paid the asking price of £5,000 with the engine light 'on'!! I sold it for £4,000, which IIRC was approx £2,500 over what the Glasses book guide price. The reason for the inflated sale price was because the car was in Concorse condition. Prior to my ownership the car had only 2 owners, both were men in suits and serviced by their local dealer. In the 3-4 years I owned her, It basically had an open cheque book. Anything that went wrong was fixed immediately regardless of cost, including the reason for the 'EML' which was a new ETM at the dealer. On top of that I replaced the breather system, fully serviced and maintained, cleaned the engine and detailed, had the front end resprayed and any paint defects (there were only a couple) corrected professionally, replaced the exhaust system with stainless, remapped stage 2, replaced headlights and fitted HIDs and a whole raft of modifications and tweaks that improved the car without devaluing it.

Selling the car was my first mistake. It wasn't until after I had sold it did I then realise how rare this particular car is. I had never seen another example in mint condition and only know of a few really clean/mint examples on the forum. Even driving round the S.E of England doing my job.....never, ever saw one or attended one!

The car was sold to a forum mbr who never drove the car for personal reasons. He sold it on to another forum mbr who IIRC never owned it for more than a few months, then sold it on.

If I were to see the car today, in the same condition I sold it in but with a few more miles, then I would happily part with £3,000 - £3500.
Truth of the matter is, I bet, the current owner don't look after it like I did and she won't get an open cheque book. So it's fair to say that condition wise it will probably be awful! I wouldn't even park under trees in it, nor do I in my current R either!

I cannot remember what the mileage was (IIRC about 136k) so you could be looking at between £1,500 - £3,000 totally depending on condition and mileage - nothing else.

Here are some pre sale photos taken a few months before I sold her...





















That was a 1999 model Phase 2 V70R AWD ^^^ and had an 'Adaptive learning' 5 spd auto. box
There were 3 phases of the P1 model V70R. The Phase 3 car came with 265bhp and a twin exhaust as stock.

What year is the car mate??
What's the mileage??

[inde_house]

Hello mate. I dont know the year of the car or the milage. Just someone who I work with
