an excellent 'guide' when robbing px's for cheap money. and like i already said, a car is worth what someones willing to pay for it.

if you sell cars you should know that they are there as a guide, but dont take many factors into account including local variations!

I wouldn't hesitate... wasting time like posting up on here means sumone could have bought it by now ;)

The Astra GTE is much like the GSi will always sell well over normal book price if they are in MINT Condition

With the 'is it worth it?' question in mind then, youve just answered that yourself :P

i think it worth it cos good ones r getting as rare as classic cars and u dont get any classic cars, whatever make, for less than 2 grand if its mint

Well, Retail, as described, G reg is worth £650 and H reg is worth £825. So clearly it does matter. Thats Decembers prices.

Clean, trade values are £210 for the G-reg and £220 for the H reg.

I wouldnt say its worth it. But, in reality, if your willing to pay £2500, then its worth £2500 :rolleyes:

If it's genuinely as new, then age is unimportant.

Would you spend £2.5k on a 2.0 8v Astra in a showroom?

posted on 7th Jan 05 at 21:02

Hmm, i still wouldn't pay that much for it TBH. Whats the book price for a low mileage A1 example one of the same age ?
