Wrong
an 03 is only worth £6500 at most
I had a 53 reg up for £6200 with bugger all interest
hence the reason I'm now keeping it

Take a few things into consideration
-mileage on yours..80 odd thousand
-you said the car was suffering from a misfire from an exhaust you fitted, yes you said it was fixed but still not the best advertisement for something you're trying to flog
- not exactly the most accessible person on the planet being in the scottish highlands
- incase you haven't noticed we've just had christmas and new year so everyone isn't exactly flush at the moment
need any more points?

I used mine as an example, ad yes your correct
But an 03reg is not worth 7k of anyones money anymore
dealers are asking less

So my car is not worth more than 6.5k no?
Dealers try selling SRI turbos for 6k still! If you had sold yours for 7.5k im sure you would be whistling a different tune

I wouldn't advertise mine for 7.5k I'd be laughed off by any buyers as dealer price is £7.1k
I'm sorry but I wont ask over what a car is worth.

I agree, a car is worth what someone is willing to pay for it imo...You usually find the right buyer who's willing to pay the amount you want for it eventually...

Currently runs 317bhp, and if I was to sell it now I would still push the same sorta money..
When i wanted to buy one they were selling so quick I couldnt keep up with it!
