Thinking about advertising my ABT.

My 2019 Leon Cupra R ST Abt has done 26k. Don't use it much now, so thinking about advertising it. Full SEAT history and just serviced and MOT'd by SEAT. 4 new Michelin PS4S tyres just fitted. Immaculate condition and around a year transferable SEAT warranty and another service/MOT included. So I reckon it's worth around £27.5k? Not interested in offers or swaps.

That’s a good price for the mileage, FSSH, warranty and tyres. 5 on AutoTrader at the moment. There are more FWD non-R Cupras on AutoTrader which are £5,000-8,000 less than the Rs. The Rs will be become collectors as they’re very rare, but depends if you can afford to sit on it, or if you need to free up some money at the moment.

I could afford to sit on it, but I've got 2 dry weather cars and I'm thinking about selling both and putting that money into one car. That way I'd only have one set of insurance/tax/running costs. We've also got a 1.6 Fiesta for the day to day family stuff.

I think one of those on AT isn't an ABT, and the others have more miles or are more money. An aftermarket warranty isn't comparable to the SEAT service/warranty plan either.

I think £27.5k sounds about right. There are very few Mk3 Cupras around at the moment - kinda wish i had got one new.

Bought mine around 3 years ago from a SEAT dealer, and they probably were only £3-4k more when new, after being discounted. I think Covid was still affecting prices then too. Plus I'm not sure you will be able to get the same SEAT on warranty on them for much longer.

I hadn't driven the car quickly since fitting the Michelin PS4S tyres, but did a couple of days ago, and I'd say they're a definite improvement over the original fitment Continentals.

I decided it was worth around £30k and someone agreed with me, so after 3 years I decided let it go. Not sure yet what to replace it with as it is quite a hard act to follow.
