ibiza depreciation

[Dan20vt]

Hi all im looking to get a 2000 cupra turbo in the next few days ive only just come accross them and took a real liking to them.

And as most of you are owner,s in here i was woundering how quick there devaluing i no seats havent got much of a track record for holding there money, is this one going to do the same.... especially now the mk4 is out

Cheers folks

depends how much u pay for it in the first place dont u think

as far as market depreciation goes they aint bad but the price ranges are silly when one day someone puts the ibiza up for sale at £5k and it dont get any interest an then a week later someone sells theirs for £7.5k

the mk4 cupra has been out ages and still people are paying around the £6k mark and its been like this for ages


but my advice would be make sure u want one for def...cos mk3 cupras are like a marmite thing

The mk4 being realeased doesnt affect the price of the mk3 in my mind, as the mk4's are disgusting!
My own opinion!

 

[Dan20vt]

Cheers.
Yeah im lookin at a yellow one full ssh 50k few mods exhaust, air filter ,suspension, tints, i love the car just keep changing my mind about the colour i like it now just worried i will go of it lol, and its goin to be about 5k does that sound ok?

That sound spot on they have wrecked the new ibiza and the new leon imo too

Payed 8.5k for mine in August 04. Seeing the prices of them atm ...

 

[Dan20vt]

looks nice though and 300bhp too bet its awsome to drive

 

[flashbsd]

7k last year, did have 18k on the clock,

he craves 300bhp, not actually got it

i would still pay 7k for mine with the current miles, (33) i love it that much ,its been good to me, taken anything ive thrown at it, and it still puts a smile on my face the more i bolt onto it!

 

[Daz_gibbo]

As flash says, hopefully will be sorted soon though

my cousin is looking for one at mo trying to find him a desent one there on on autotrader with a IHI conversion and the works 10,500 grand wanted looks the nuts ansd 340 bhp wow!

must be someones on here blue with white alloy and IHI conversion surely.

Mk4 cupra disgusting bit harsh and offensive esc putting that on a seat site if someone said my car was disgusting and i heard i would lay right into them! so :birdy:
i think the mk4 cupra (red) looks beautiful needs lowering down a notch!
i think the mk3 and mk4 cupras are both gorgeous cars!

 

[Daz_gibbo]

It's up for sale again? The lad has only just bought it.. Cupra_200bhp owns it IIRC

I thought that one had been sold now to a guy on here, it was shanes (SPS) old car. I have had my mk3 cupra for 4 years in April. I had it 1 week and i got it superchipped, i then had e05 fitted 1 year later, and i have now had IHI on for the last 16 months. Its been the best car i have ever owned, its very quick draws the right amount of attention, but not to much. It has now done 59k on a y plate 2001. I have it serviced every 6 months, and i have done things before they were really due, i had the cam belt water pump done at the 55k mark. Mileage has never worried me, i would rather have a well maintained 60k car than a 30k car which has never seen an oil change. Engine wise mine seems to have loosened up nicely and is running as well as it ever did if not better. I paid 10k 4 years ago. There easily bought for 5-6k now and within the chavs reach but luckily so are old wrx imprezza's so they buy those instead. Which is good news for us. Tuning potential is fantastic. Its been one of my best buys.

 

[Dan20vt]

Well sound like im hearing good stuff cant wait to get mine and find out for myself!!!!
id much rather one of these to a sooby, there must be at least 20 of them in every town lol but you can get a lot of car for your money with them....

If you want a cupra, go for a red one, to many yellows in our area (ross on wye), i though, love my leon cupra, as there is no other black ones in ross

 

[tackleberry]

It's up for sale again? The lad has only just bought it.. Cupra_200bhp owns it IIRC

yeah he's had some offer him a good price on a lotus elise

 

[Dan20vt]

Two more people from Ross lol ive seen both the cars actually both very nice, im not sure what coulor ill end up with to be honest just trying to find the best i can for my money.
I am trying to avoid yellow though..... they just keep appering for sale everywhere quite cheap which makes them tempting....

 

[tackleberry]

dont know if you know the forest of dean but there is a red cupra R in parkend, 3 yellow ones in mitchledean, 1 yellow one in lydney, 1 silver in coleford and a blue one in ross. And dont get me started on how many are in wales

 

[JKing]

I got my Cupra-R cheap a few months ago so hopefully it should depreciate less than a normal cupra. Saying that I'm not too concerned as I plan on keeping it for a while yet.

That will be my car thats in the autotrader. Im only selling it as my mates dad is selling is vx220 turbo and he said he would give it to me for a good price. I know im going to miss IHI power as ive never felt anything pull as hard in my life it never gives up always wants to keep pulling. Just hope it goes to someone that knows what they are doing with it, as could be a lethal weapon in wrong hands IMO.

 

[Dan20vt]

yeah i no the forest well i never realised there were so many about though... I drove one of the yellow ones the other day i cant remember the owners name i guess that leaves me with black then lol....

 

[Dan20vt]

here is another reason not to get yellow....
