Hi all,
can anyone give me an idea of a realistic value for my 99 Vitara 1.6 Fatboy, been dry stored for 3 years.
I bought her 6 years ago for £1500 and ran her a coupel of times a week until 3 years ago when i put her away into storage when i bought a new car. She is in good order, couple of small rust spots but when put away had an MOT (now expired obviously) and was a good little runner with only 76k on the clock. I had just bought her a new set of rims+tyres(225) too as 265 tyres were unavailable at the time! The original deep dish wheels come with her btw.
I have a load of paperwork, old mots/tax discs, service history etc too.
When wheeled out of storage this weekend she had a flat battery and the drums are sticking slightly. She needs a good wash and valet and i guess an oil/plugs change and a good mechanical appraisal /MOT but i see no big reason why with a little bit of t+c she wont wont be as good as when put away.
I thought £650 would be a fair price to sell "as is" ?
(I have stuck her on ebay at this price but i'd rather someone here had her)
