How much would my Volvo be worth when i come to move on? Which might be soon

Don't want to sell her but i can't get a new car and keep her due to space.

Its a grey 340 1.7 gl. 5 door few scratches and dents but nothing major and no rust.

Stripped, (but have standard seats and the carpets are still in)

Two rage fixed bucket seats on cobra runners, Sparco 3 point harnesses

Welded diff (properly done)

Alloy wheels and steelies as spares.

New sump fitted as other was cracked

Cut springs at front and lowering blocks at rear.

mountney leather wheel and 300 boss

96k two owners

12months MOT

2 months tax

As a rule of thumb, the worse it is, the more you should ask for it.

No, honestly, a fair price is probably £300-400, as the modifications you've made are desirable to some, but less so to others.

Not the time to be selling really.
I'd be surprised if it made £300 atm.

Just going by current ebay values and the cars not selling on V3M, VOC etc.

And a lot of people seem to have gotten sick of them very quickly, so theres lots of chioce atm.

Seems the drift boys buy em, wreck em then try and sell them for big margin.

Yup.
'I cant drift a 340, it broke. I think I need moooar poooowwwwa!'

[garth]

Go buy a S13 dude!

I think thats a bit out of line, its not wreaked at all. The only scratches on it are from the previous lady owner.

'Im not looking for a profit just want to weigh up what i have to spend on a next car.

Its been a well looked after car tbh, and i paid £300 for it to begin with.

It be turned back to standard by just bolting the standard seats back in and removing the block/ adding new spring.

I haven't ripped it apart at all.

Dont think he was talking about you Scotty. We just jacked your thread.
Just seems to be the trend at the minute.

In no way was anyone suggesting this car has been mistreated.
In retrospect, maybe not the kind of thing we shouldve been saying in a FOR SALE thread.

Appologies dude.

[Scottyj]

no need to apologize if it wasn't aimed at me, i was more trying to defend myself tbh.

I know some drifters do as above but i generally planned to keep the car a while, but i really want something a bit newer thats a bit more comfy with PAS and a bit more power.

If i could keep it i honestly would as i love it, and spend all my time tinkering with it tbh. But for the costs of running it etc. i can get something newer and a bit less harsh as im soon going to be driving 60miles a day to get to and from work....

It will go in the for sale section once my finances are sorted out properly and i have all my money ready to buy the new car.

I am tempted to turn it back to standardish condition though tbh and sell the harnesses etc separate. but ill see if i can be bothered.

[volvosneverdie]

more than likely get more money that way dude.
theres plenty of harness hunters out there, not many that would appreciate them in a 300 series.

[Scottyj]

Very true, ill probably put a price up with all the shizzle.

Then another coming in near standard trim

got plenty of spare tyres and wheels to chuck in so hopefully ill get some interest.

[garth]

Wasn't aimed at you. I meant in general, as there's plenty of evidence out there to suggest this.

[redline]

scotty post some pics up mate ,
the ebay link you posted when you bought the car has died ,
its hard to put ant sort of price on a car without seeing it

[Scottyj]

ermmm

Only pic i have atm....

[garth]

Looks nice, what wheels are they on the front?
