UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

I'm thinking on maybe moving up to a bigger car with more potential for tuning so curious to here what people think my car is worth, as after all its only worth what people are willing to spend.

Starting with the basics it's:

Metallic black
71,000 miles
Full service history, Cambelt etc done.
New radiator fitted as the one fitted was leaking.
Standard interior
Polishes up well bar some swirl marks which will no doubt polish out, a 5p size dent on the passenger door and a few marks on the top of the rear bumper.

Outside:

Schmidt modernlines 7.5j on the front and 9j on the rear refurbed in antrachite £970 + £380 for refurb
Lowered on JOM coilovers (not the best but its no track car to me) £180
Lower honeycomb grills £50
Antrachite and black badges

Engine:

Stage 3 jbs conversion costing £5.2k completed may 2013 consisting of:

Loba Motorsport l300 turbo with forge adjustable actuator £1550
Jbs high flow cast manifold £400
Bosch 4 bar fuel pump £287
Bosch 4 bar fuel regulator £87
Bosch 380cc injectors £450
Bosch 3" maf £186
Genuine PD160 air box to suit 3" maf £85
Green cotton panel filter £51
PD160 cold air intake £104
Forge custom TIP (to suit 3" maf and larger turbo inlet) £150
Forge FMIC £675
Custom code stage 3 mapping £550
Full service and check up at the same time 1,500 miles ago
Other odds and sods needed it all adds up
Plus labour on top

Plus:

Milltek 3" large bore decat down pipe £190
Milltek cat back non resonated £359
Forge 007p diverter valve £100

Odds:
Black coolant cap £10
Private plate T18 PVW £255
Autohaus Wolfsburg plate surrounds £15

Clutch is standard and coping extremly well
No rolling road print out yet but if and when I decide to sell I will have it done for new owner and it will be just shy of 300bhp
Only ever ran on v power
Brakes are also currently standard however done me ok with good pads.

All parts fitted have been brand new with no second hand parts fitted so this really has had no expense spared.

All standard parts i have such as monzas, suspension etc would be included in the sale.

I'm pretty sure I've missed bits but that's enough for now





It will be interesting what people think its worth

Thanks, andy

You'll never get anything near what it cost you
Better off splitting it

Tbh mate I have no idea, hence this thread.

What would you be willing to pay? Don't worry I won't take it as a serious offer on it or that you want it etc, just your personal opinion on what its worth.

I would guess at between 8 and 9k but that's very dependant on finding the right buyer obviously that isn't just going to mess you around and kick tyres

probably the current market out there, looking at prices, its worth around 8k but to interest people would be more like 7k? due to the milage also... but if you are wanting to sell soon, drop me a PM!

i got 8300 for mine but it had a higher options spec with 1/3rd the mileage however it was only stage one.

if you are not in a rush i reckon you could see 9k for it
