What's it worth?

[FITZY]

Had my avant for quite some time now, but think it might be time to try something different. 94 'L' in silver (colour coded) 125k with mot till oct & tax till mar 12.
I would class the bodywork as good condition as there are a few areas which in my opinion could be better, namely the paintwork on the bonnet is not the best and the tailgate has some rust in the usual place (although i have a spare rust free rs2 tailgate)
Mechanically spot on bar a slight oil leak just appeared from somewhere near the oil pressure switches on the block.
Interior wise I've not long ago fitted a complete silver half leather RS2 interior (electric) and it has the matching steering wheel which i believe is quite rare.

The car benefits from a few modifications, most of which fitted by myself over the last 5 and a half years and some which were carried out by the previous owner, Martyn at VAGparts.

& probably more stuff I've forgotten about.

Just reading back through that list I dread to think what i've spent on it , I also have an 034 RS2 replica turbo which needs a rebuild and 034 rs2 injectors to go with the car. Rolling roaded at castle combe a few years back @ 280bhp/315lb/ft whilst holding no pressure on a boost leak test (turned out to be a knackered turbo which has since been replaced) so probably a bit more than that now.

Let me know what you think people, and i'm really not that clever with computers so you should find some photos in my gallery.

P.S Would come with many spares.

I've not a clue as prices seem to be more set by the seller and what they feel it's worth and on how quickly/sincere they are for it to sell.

All I do know is I like the look of that S2

[audinut]

they seem to be doing well at the mo id say 5k?

[andyg plym]

they are up and down. coupes seem to hold their money better. i sold my avant with 161k on the clock and in good nick for £4.5k 18 months ago and since then prices plummeted, you could pick up a half decent one for £3k.

Having said that, when you look at BigLee's avant and its up at £5k i think its worth that and i would say fitzy yours with the goodies and particularly the low milage should fetch £5k easily as its got all the kit. Apart from an rs2 blower what other mods does it realistically need

Hi Paul,

I would say £4k - £5k if you are prepared to wait.

Hope you and the family are well.

Cheers,

I'd say thats the right ball park for a tidy avant with some provenance alright... I always think of that car as Martyn's from years gone by... last time I saw the car was at a campsite forum gathering somewhere and my very young son was having a great old time in the drivers seat enjoying the sporty steering wheel which was a recent addition. Nice car. Hope it goes to a good home - its the sort of Avant I would go for if I had the wedge.

[Cymru1]

would you sell the "spare" tailgate on its own?
Im after a replacement.

[s2driveruk]

its a minter Paul...i'd love it

[sfrs4]

as i have just found out, unless you really have to sell, now is not the time!!!! know one has any money at the moment, and those that do aren't spending it.
when i first listed my rs4 it was the cheapest rs4 on autotrader, pistonheads and ebay still no one bought it, now it's one of the most expensive and thats in five weeks. unless it's exactly what somone is looking for, and there are few alternatives you could be disapointed with the "offers" people will make, i was offered £3k less .
that said it's a nice looking and well spec'd example, and good luck with the sale.

Paul, you're not desperate to sell and the spec is certainly better than most. I'd say stick it up for just under £5k and wait. It's worth £4k5, so someone will come along and bid you somewhere close; it might just take a while.

[anthonys2]

Agree with most comments been looking at prices for a bit coupes hold out a bit more but your avant is in mint condition and with all them mods i would never let that car go for any less than £5k. These cars are incredibly rare and less and less on the roads people should push for top dollar!!! good luck whatever you do
