Title: POLO value?
Post by: Ninja on 22 July 2009, 21:43

Not sure if I'm allowed to post this here? (if not just delete) but my brother is wondering how much he can expect to get for a 1997 Polo, 1.4, VGC, Wolfrace alloys (everything else standard), in a light metallic green. Think its done around 60-70K miles.

The prices vary so much on Ebay, he does not know hoe much to list his for.

Any ideas?

Cheers!

I bought almost the same car 3 years ago, N reg Polo 1.4 5 door, Dragon Green (probably just like his with metallic "sparkle") with 110k, MOT and Tax for £1000.
Even with lower mileage and slightly newer, he might struggle to get more than £800.
But as said, it's only worth as much as someone is willing to pay.
These days everyone is wanting to get something for nothing, so expect people to want to negotiate a lower price.
With ebay it's tricky, start the auction too low and it could finish with a low price after only a few bids, start too high and you may get no bids.

Id say around £700-800 with MOT and stuff. 6Ns only fetch much when euroed or 16v versions it seems. Build quality is poor on them and rust easy  :shocked:
6n2 VW stepped the game up  :grin: Renember the polo is alot cheaper then a golf.

Best bet is check out rate on here

I'll try and get him to post some pics. Don't think he's interested in offers below £800 though! It is in V good condition. The alloys are in good cond, and he's recently fitted a new clutch and wishbone.
