    its not your car....................................but that about what is worth. only issue is you probably have to spend $40k+ on another overpriced new car to get that trade-in price and you loose about 15% as soon as you drive it out the door. at least its your dads loss and not yours.

    you lack some cred --> VE SV6 Badges

    but I think thats about all they are worth given you can get a new one for mid to low $30s and as you know mods = no more value.

    Debadging your dads VE will most likely devalue it not add value! What mod's has it got?

    Why does he want to trade it in, he would be a lot better off selling privately!

    Nobody is going to pay $30k for that. It's an SV6. With an identity crisis.

    They dont tint windows at the factory...let alone most of the other stuff you've made your dad do to his car.

    So saying it's all factory fit isnt true.

    i agree with this, the dealer when having a closer look will offer you about $24-25k as they are not making money on a new car & there is shit loads of series 1's in the yards, the only thing going for it is thats its a manual.http://www.carsales.com.au/private/d...ind=sv6|CarAll


    and you dont make extra money on mods

    LOL. ^^^

    If you want to sell the car, and Holden has offered you $27,000 for it, take it. Who cares if you could make an extra thousand or two selling it privately. It could take WEEKS to sell it, plus you'd be letting a heap of tyre kickers drive it, sit in it etc...

    You will inevitably loose thousands on your next car purchase anyway, so saving a thousand or two NOW won't mean shit.

    No, its your dads, as stated in the other thread, you are selling the car for him because he is not great when it comes to using the internet...



    Sometimes I wear a different pair of underwear than the pair I wore when I bought my car, does this count as a mod?
