My wife had this for the day coz her car was in for a service.....cue complaints about to loud.

And my 9 year old decided that she would rather walk to school rather than arrive in this coz it is old and too loud and all the other mum's cars are quiet. This makes me sad coz when she was younger she would complain about not going out in this coz vrooooom.

How times change.

Keep in mind that you can always lower your price, but you can't negotiate upwards. I'd start somewhere around $6k - I'm sure somebody will be willing to pay that for it. If you don't get any (legitimate) bites within 2 weeks, lower your price progressively until you're able to sell it.

Not easy to sell cars these days with all the jokers out there.

This has been at the forefront of my thinking.

Withouy being rude ive been eyeing up 5 litres at the moment and in perth 6 can get you a clubby or very nice ss. Itd be worth close to half of that figure. If you over price it people will think you're dreaming and not ring.

I'd say this is one of the more tidy examples around. It's definitely worth a bit more than your run of the mill VS V8.

I can't find a lot for sale using Gumtree & Carsales to get an idea of where the market actually is.

One VR Clubsport on Gumtree for ~$30k (low kms etc). No VS.

One VR SS for ~$17k (383 etc) on eBay. No VS SS

A handful of VR/VS 5 litres in varying condition ranging from $2.5k (either unregoed &/or have issues) to $13k (VR Exec with 170k kms & overpriced imo).

Have you got any other sources of sale listings for these ?
