Yet another "how much is my car worth" thread :-)

[Vtec220]

Hi folks - could any of you kind people give me a ball park figure as to how much my car is worth?

2004 Leon Cupra R 225
Black
29 000 miles
3 owners
Tax July 09
Mot June 09
FSH
Usual Cupra R spec

Mods wise its got Forge 007 dv, green panel filter, Milltek cat back exhaust and some SFS hoses.

Thanks amigos.

for a similar spec car i paid around 10-11k from a dealer in april, it would have been around 8-9k private; now take into account the recent fall in second hand values, 6-7k as a rough figure? you'd most likely get more selling the mods separately and the car as standard too.

I personally wouldnt let it go for any less than £8k due to the low mileage

having a look about on pistonheads, 8k is about what people are asking - not sure how many are selling at the moment though

Not alot of interest tbh, probably the wrong time of year. Had a little bit of interest in mine, but nothing concrete.

can't believe your selling mate - what are you going to drive to the btcc?

Well, not wishing to steal your thread, but I'm about to sell my black 2001 Cupra (180bhp) with 171,000 miles.
Absolutley immaculate with a full SEAT service history and no mods.
The thing is, you can pay for a valuation with Glass's online guide, or Parkers & 'What Car?' valuation guides, but they all come back with different prices.
In my case, Glass's was £2,680, What Car? £2,380 and Parker's £1,650. All fed the same information, and based on a private sale in top condition.
My local Dealer advises £1,500.
Take your pick!!

So I too am curious what people think my car's true value is too.

Good luck with your sale

Thanks for all your input guys - really dont want to sell it, fantastic car, but, its the only way I can raise the money for a house deposit at the moment - I have a feeling it will take a long time to sell though!

Probably the Leon in the way its going. Im lucky enough to have a company car so transport is not a problem. Plus the fact that im keeping a close eye on the plummeting prices of 2003/2004 RS6's. Could be an interesting year.
