Default whats it worth? 52plate s2k

hi all,

im looking at selling my s2k, its indy pearl yellow. 35k, fhsh, was originally registered by honda uk, then 1 lady owner up to 29k and the rest by me since july last year.

I recently put new wheels and tyres on it, only covered about 2k. wheels are 17x8 et45 and 17x9 et 35 rota torques(drifts on the rear) tyres are falken 452's, 225/45/17 and 255/40/17.

Its a gt model, but no hardtop as i recently sold it planning to replace it with a carbon hardtop. its got about 5 months tax and mot. its due a service soon aswell. there is a decat on it and its been lowered on eibach springs. Ive also had the rear arches rolled by archenemy.co.uk. It now has the rick's s badges.

what do you guys think its worth? i need to release some cash as im going to build a kit car for my toy and buy the mrs an early civic type r.

here are a couple of pics, need to sort some better ones when i advertise it.

cheers for any advice

steve

just been on the for sale, and it seems that 00 plates with higher mileage are going for just under 8k!, early 03's with higher mileage are near 10k or higher. so i reakon that il advertise it somewhere in between.

cheers for the replies

Put it up for sale and you will find out. Price high and lower it as you get no bites.

Good luck

You can't start low and raise the price, so do the opposite. But keep an eye on what similar is going for in your area. Some bozo on the Teg site initially wanted almost 10k for a car a later sold at about 6k, so be realistic. Defoe a buyer's market.

People will pay more for a better example. I always would. But I wouldn't be ripped off either. Good luck.
