My very good condition Sportline with 97k sold for £7000 this year in standard guise with all the upgraded bits removed which I sold for a further £1500.
I think I got a good price for a good car.
The guy that bought it would have paid more as he told me so but in my opinion the car was fairly priced and the money was in my hand within 12hrs of putting the ad on my mk1 Facebook page, which in my eyes tells me the price was correct.
£12000 is stupid even for the best Sportline in the world.

terrible number plates (rear one not even fitted straight or in the right position)
The number plates look to be the original dealer plates to me. The font is the old style charles wright font that was in use at the time.

Well if that's the case, that would explain why they were fastened on wonky and in the wrong position. I've not met a dealer yet who could stick number plates on straight. My dad just bought a brand new skoda Fabia and I had them put the plates on straight before we would pay for it.. It really niggles me that people just don't take care with things like that!..

Not surprised they didn't sell at that price before and will be amazed if they do this time!

Nice price! I was offered €9000 for my Sportline here in Spain last year! 😎😎😎 Plus I think I already have a buyer for the Young Line LHD I am sorting in the uk at the moment but destined for Spain!
Yours is a particularly nice example though lol!! Don't get me wrong but it wouldn't sell mine for under 10k now. It's not worth 10k by any stretch but it's the kind of 'not for sale' price I'd have if in order to make it worthwhile and budget to find a replacement.
I suppose it might be an early indication of where the certain cabbies are going in light of the sharp rise in tin top prices or other 80s/90s stuff for that matter.

Okay I don't have a Sportline but mine is a bit special in other ways.
But when people ask me which they do would I consider selling it, I just throw a stupid number at them to put the off.
But one day I'm sure someone will take the bait and I'll sell him.
Then pocket half the cash and find something else!
Just can't get the car salesman out of me.
