Guidance on how to price my car to sell

Post

Back to the top
Hi , We are sadly looking to sell our 1992 Karmann Clipper 1.8l
Looking for a bit of guidance price wise as we live in SW France where the LHD are priced extortionately .
She is in great condition and has power hood. Bonnet needs a respray and there are a few dinks in the coachwork where our son dropped his bike on the car . GRRRRRRR
70,000 miles on the clock , we are the 3rd owner from new and have owned her for 10 years.
Metallic Turq with grey cloth . Is there a premium or deduction for colour…not sure.
Passed MOT first time every time.
Just a guide on price would be appreciated.
Many thanks

Hi there

It's a really difficult one to answer with just one photo - if you have any of the interior and engine bay it would help.

Assuming that there's no rust issues or mechanical problems to be sorted, and just what you've mentioned, I guess that you're looking around the £2,000 mark - it depends how many dinks are in the bodywork that a potential buyer will want to sort out.

A car with your mileage in excellent condition will no doubt fetch a lot more, potentially. However, the fact of needing the bonnet painted and the other dinks will hammer you on price.

I hope that helps?

Cheers
Andy

As Hairyarse said but ask for 3k and come down from there.
