In a word ...  crap ...  :)

Its too darn difficult to actually read about the car !!! and when you do bother .. it tells you nothing !!

walk away .. quickly ... IMHO  :)

this has been on ebay before.....early part of the year....

If i was interested i would be looking at having a real good look before bidding.

Factor a cambelt change in the price as well

If that could be bought for less than a grand then it is worth it

Nice. That has indeed been on ebay before. But for a car that only does 5-6 miles a day, that's a fair bit of mileage! Presumably it's been a fleet car at some point so i'd check the obvious?

It was on Ebay a couple of months ago.  I was watching it. 'Sold' for £1300, but then I guess it didn't really.    

What do you think a 2000 Elite in decent nick is worth?
Title: Re: selling a car
Post by: Admin on 15 April 2008, 16:09:51
A decent Yr 2000 facelift 2.5 Elite with proper history is worth £1,500.

However that is not one and he is as much a mechanic (ie Mechanical Engineer) as I am! £100 for a battery and heater regulator (HBV?) at £119.... :o

It is worth £500 but nothing more, that car needs work, and I suspect quite a lot.... read his last 2 feedback

clearly he's waited 3 months to re-advertise so the previous listings arent available to view on ebay

I have it.  I've asked him why it didn't complete - lets see.
