  • Book Price on Surf?

    Today a guy called me up about the surf im selling.. i told him the price of 5k and that was with no offers..

    He then told me the price i was asking was way over the book price and that i need to be more realistic?? I quizzed him about where he got the book price from "Glasses" or "Parkers" etc and he laughed and said it was a proper trade price guide not Glasses etc..

    Anyone any ideas on this Book? and if so what it says my L 94 Surf 3.0 ssrx is worth!!

          I have the GREY BOOK for all imports and its just downloaded the April values.

          Amended to show uploaded jpg of values.

          I can do a mileage adjustment if you send me the info.

              It all really depends on where you are, I have seen 94 L going for £4000 and some to £5400. I know of a couple forum members who paid £4500 for 94 L a couple of years ago.
              It all down to that old thing of shopping around and the optional extras & condition of course.
              Say not always what you know, but always know what you say.

                It's only worth the same as all the others in Autotrader (best price guide ever )

                  I would agree on using autotrader website - best way of getting a guide price as you can see trade and private sales from all over the country. However, most of these prices are still what people want rather than what they will sell for.

                  When I was looking for my 2nd gen 3L recently the lowest I found was £3900 (which looked mint) right up to £7000!! (which also looked mint). Mileage/condition only seemed to have a small bearing on prices.

                  5k seems a reasonable price for a good condition 95 3L, personally I would not pay more though (enough good ones available at 5k) - I would just stick it out for a bit and ignore muppets like the one that called you.
                  No longer a Surf owner.

                    i'd say 5k is ok but some may be put off by NO OFFERS.
                    If you can hang in there for 5k. If I'd looked around for longer I probably could have got a lower mileage/better condition Surf but I needed the car, and it was also in London.
                    Mine was pretty cheap but not bad nick - its no minter.
