How much is this worth?

[Maxxed_Ross]

my mate is planning on selling his 51 plate Mk1 ZS 180 this week as he has a company car and has offered me first refusal.

It's Solar red, white powder coated straights, brand new tyres all round, de-cat exhaust system, racing cams and some other powerflow goodies

It's just had the vis valves done recently and is only sitting at 40k miles

Full (and it even has the print outs) service history, previous lady owner from new, new pads last year some time. The odd ding on the body but nothing that can't be fixed.

he said he'll put it through the MOT and stick 6 months tax on it...

he wants £3700... sound about right?

cheers

i would say its worth that with all the goodies it has on it, i paid £4000 for my 52 plate a few months back

Sounds a good price considering its history. We all know the extras count for nowt on any car, but in this case they can be plus's.

Doesn't sound too bad, but you just might be able to haggle him down a little more.

Nothing to loose by trying... right?

[Maxxed_Ross]

I said i could give him £3k in cash right now as that's all I have but he wants a bit more... and me being out of work at them moment makes things even worse!

I'll try for £3.5 and see what happens

[Robstar]

sounds well worth it to me

You could always show him the price on Parker's price check website and try and haggle him down, but of course the price on the website does not include the extras. http://www.parkers.co.uk/cars/used-p...68&buysell=buy

One thing that has just occurred to me.................seeing that it is a 51 plater, has it had it's cambelts done? As these are due at 90k miles or 6 years, whatever comes soonest. We are talking a big job here between £450 and £800 depending upon where you go. It's not one for the amateur due to the special tools required and complexity, three belts and a tensioner assembly to change.

I would guess that is the reason they are selling it and hope no-one knows what is required and when.

[Maxxed_Ross]

ooo good shout, I'll ask about that. it's only on or around 40K so the 6 years will be first

here's some pics I took this afternoon of it







it's needing good polish to bring the colour back up, but the wheels were done when he got it last year and are still perfect. The interior looks brand new... looks like the standard leather seats with the red panelling on the sides.
