Mk3 VRS 245 how much are they worth private sale?

Featured Replies

I'm looking to sell my 68 Skoda Octivia VRS 245 completely unmodified, justr over 30k on clock in lovely blue, looking for some advice on what I should be selling it for price wise.  

I did a look for all the free price tools online I could find

Car Wow - £15,599
Motorway - £14201
Webuyanycar - £14365

Now I thought AutoTrader would give me a better idea what it's worth as they are supposedly advising you the price to sell it, but they came in at £14700.  I assumed I would be able to sell it more myself than if I used Car Wow for example, I mean not a lot more, but a bit :)

Any advice on price greatly appreciated, also believe me I don't want to be selling the car in the first place, but need something smaller for my wife who won't drive it.

The only price of those that is an actual market price to be paid is the WBC. Of course they can knock you down further on inspection for undeclared damage, like wheel damage. So if you want to use them make sure you enter damage present on quote.

 

As for other prices, they're all just a guide, including autotrader. One way to guage what they are selling for is finding like spec cars, monitor how long before they're taken off and sold. But there will be material difference between a dealer supplied car on autotrader and a private sale.

That CarWow price seems pretty strong to me, given that the buyer will then have to make a margin on the car.

Why don't you put it up for sale on Briskoda?

Thanks for the comments guys, I may well list on Briskoda, I wanted to know what sort of price it was worth first…and if the offers they gave were actually good…Thanks!

 

it’s in great condition, but alloys all have some scuffs and service is just due too🙄

Keep the car, trade the wife🤣🤣🤣

Sold my Octy vrs, facelift 230 petrol. 
 

Motorway was strongest value. Initially estimate was marked down due to lightly scuffed alloys but ended up with a higher offer I was happy with. If it’s below reserve I believe it’s still up to you whether you agree to proceed with the sale.
