In 2002 I sold my 1996 N reg 3.0 Elite auto, 4 door (not 5 as you state) with 160k but on the clock, but with fdsh, for £3,000 cash. Now I reckon, frankly, you would be lucky to get £500/600 for it in the present climate. :'( :'(

hey liz yeah 4 door shall i say then sorry lol but yeah errmm i was thinking around 800 but if thats not never going to sell for that much i am happy to get 600 for it that to someone who is going to love it as much as i did.
its sad to here such good cars loose their value so much over a coupple of years. :(

I know what you mean; that Elite I mentioned was purchased at £11,000 just THREE years before selling it (after much marketing!) for £3,000. :'( :'( :'(
It is criminal, when selling, how these great cars lose their value, but great when buying one as I did recently! ;D ;D ;)

Yes tmx, prices are going through the floor!
:o :o :o :o
In fact so much that I am considering buying an 3.2 Elite in September at the lowest price!! :y The opportunity is too good to miss! ;)
-

Another great bargain there tmx! :y At that price you could afford to walk away from it / sell it for scrap in May 09 if too expensive to keep going, otherwise run it into the ground until it stops!
As for the 3.2; yes the tax is a factor to consider, but if you can get one cheap enough, and they WILL exist, then the extra £2/300 per year will be worth paying for a good late example of an Elite. ;) ;)

Going on the raw money aspect of things (bangernomics)...9 months tax is about £150, and anything which drives is worth £15/month of MoT...they paid you to take the car!
-
the 820 was abit of a joke as the engine can handle stupid amount's of boost! the turbo will be getting turned up later :y :y :y
needs new exhaust manifold gasket & the silencer needs sealing

Just make sure you have a stock of gearboxes - that was the reason the boost was limited to "only" produce 200 lb/ft of torque

cheers for the help guys

so how much do you think you'll get one for Lizzie?
-
id place a bet that 3.2 elite / mv6 saloons will fall in price to around £800ish while pre 2001 migs wont depreciate very much the 2.5 tractor estates are the most valuable after according to my "Black book"
Book price for a Y Reg F/L 3.0 P.Ex price is £ 700 - £1200 depending on mileage and condition
