Ibiza Cupra Sport 16V
1997R
123K
Metallic Blue
New Tyres (Pirelli PZero)
New Clutch
Full MOT
11 Months Tax
2 Owners from new

Might be selling it if I get a new job soon. I love the car but would interested to know what it's worth on the market so I can try and get excited about not having it if and when I start the new job :cry:

I just bought mine with v similar spec for £1250.00. It also had full SSH, 105,000 miles, and only one owner from new.
So i would guess around £1100-1200.
 
Depends on its condition. Car buyers these days aren't so much interested in mileage and aren't put off by 100k+ motors as in the past.

If its in good condition, I'd say 1400. You have the fact it has only had a couple of owners on your side too.

Hmm, yeah that's interesting. See I assumed it would be worth about £1500 but all the ones on Auto Trader are £2000 - £3000! Which seems a bit steep I must say.
I'd be lying if I said it was mint as there is a bit of surface rust creeping in at the bottom but nothing major. The rest is pretty tidy. Also I suppose it may be a factor that I live in the South East where I would assume prices are a little higher? (but not by much I guess as it don't cost much to travel in the UK).
Well I don't know if I've got the job yet so may be keeping it :D Though I need to get the job for my new mortgage [:@] ...and sell the car to pay my overdraft :cartman:

Mine is going on the market in the next couple of weeks I think.

99 V-reg Cupra Sport in white with 63000 on the clock. Completely standard apart from the mk3 alloys. Generally in good condition but it has a couple of scratches which I'm going to get sorted before it goes. Runs great and have had few problems with it in the 6 years I've owned it. Not sure what to put it up for but on autotrader they're going for more than I expected.
