long story short the motor is ****ed and I'm not that enthusiastic on dropping in a new one so how much do ya recon she's worth?
this is her: My FIRST CAR, VS UTE
and this is whats wrong: weird noises pls help *look*
let me know please ........
$4000.......
no longer a hoon by association - the commodore is gone
2 to 4K Depending on how well looked after the rest of the car is, most of the VS utes are around 6-7K so if the body is in good nick, suspension ect the yeah should get a decent amount for it!

thanx lads I would be happy with bout 4 grand............
anyone else got an opinion
You wont like it but a VR ute with a blown engine, no reg or RWC would be very very lucky to get $2000.
Think about it from the buyers perspective....all the hassle of finding and installing a motor, then obtaining a RWC which could cost $???? as against buying a goer with RWC for $5000. Throw in all the variables of a ute you cannot roadtest like clutch/gearbox/diff/suspension.
The number of buyers prepared to buy this sort of deal is very small. They are sharp buyers and know how to shake a good deal.
So....if you want to get the max you really should instal a running motor and sell without a RWC as this will bring the value up to at least $4-5000.
But thats just my opinion. Good Luck.
