hi iv tried posting pics on here but have had a bit of trouble posting, yes my car is on standard suspension.however i did put a pic on here but it was months ago now though.

Nothing!



I already have one!

£4,000 to £4500 I would guess. You are best off returning it to near as standard and selling the bits separately.
I know when I bought a Mk3 cupra I wanted one as near to standard as possible.

You'll need to host your pics elsewhere (photobucket etc.) and then link to them.

Well i'm looking for one with mods tbh, i know how ibiza's are usually looked after and you can tell if you know them if they aren't good. TBH i've been looking at Ibiza's and they have dropped in price, there is one on pistoheads for £6000 with 27k miles. I'd say yours is worth £4500 without looking at it though noone on here could say.

 

[nick-barnes07]

id say go for about 5k-5.5 k , put it on pistonheads

 

[si-mate]

Didn't pay anywhere near that for mine and that's an X plate with 72k miles, revo, no other mods, tax and test.
There is a guy selling his X plate black cupra in the for sale section for £4,500 and it has been there a few weeks now.

 

[Steve GTI]

Depends how desperate he is to sell tbh, if he wants a quick sale put it £4500, if you want to hold out for a better price then price it higher but tbh £5500 would be max imo, for £6000 you can get R's, or very very low mileage cupra's.

5- 5.5K Should sell no probs.

How about mine then:

2000 X Mk3 Ibiza Cupra. Revo, FMDV007P, 73k miles, Black, Original Alloys (some kerbing), just spent £300 removing all dents and scratches from the bodywork, CD changer.

 

[Steve GTI]

£4k?

 

[Dan Cupra R]

as per SteveGTi

bout 4 - 4.5k max

 

[Steve GTI]

Actually going from you previos post i'd say £3000 - £3500.

Actually going from you previos post i'd say £3000 - £3500.

So how can mine be £2500 less when the only difference is 30,000 miles (73k is still less than average for the age) and a year older?

 

[Steve GTI]

Well you say his is worth £4-£4.5k, yours has higher miles, less mods, and older, i'd say knock a grand off.

 

[si-mate]

Exactly, but the point I'm trying to make is that everyone seems to think its worth ~5.5k which if mine is worth £1000 less then mine must be worth £4500.

 

[si-mate]

And not many buyers will want to buy a modified car and certainly won't pay a premium for it.

 

[Steve GTI]

You'd be suprised.
