Default Looking at a mates car, what do you think it would be worth?
Hi All,

Looking at a mates car, and just wondering what you guys think it would be worth.

It's a 91 NC Fairlane Ghia, 5.0 V8 on gas (dual fuel), everything works, lowered, a set of 17's, alarm & immobiliser. Has 250kays on it, but mechanically it's very good, body does have quite a few car park dents buy hey, its an old car!

Oh and it will be supplied with RWC and reg.

I was thinking it would be worth around the 3k mark, but just wanted to get a few opinions!

Thanks,

Justin.

Nah, not trying to rip him off at all, nothing like that! Just a reality check for both of us to see what it's worth - he hasn't advertised it as yet and therefore hasn't had any feedback. As for me, I haven't really looked at these, so wasn't quite sure....

Yeah, I've had a drive of it, and it's a nice comfy car. This has got lowered King Springs and Monroe shocks and handles really well for such a barge!

My grandfather had a 93 LTD V8 back when they were new, and it was a great car, nothing ever really went wrong!

Just did it:
Drive says about 3.5-4k for private sale. Carsales says 2-4k. I'm guessing that a 4k example would need to be fairly immac for it's age.
This one is clean, but does have a lot of dings and the interior's a bit worn. Mechanically it is A1 though and does have a few extras....

I've been keeping an eye out now, and I notice there are quite a few of these things advertised at 5000 and over for early models with very high kays. They have been advertised for quite some time though, so is this just a case of people dreaming?
