Another overpriced 1.8T Its worth about a grand less than that. the seller seems to think its worth more because he put a cambelt on it :rolleyes: If I put my Prelude up for what I spent on it then i would be rich :shocked: Mines better than that and cost me £1550...seriously :smiley:

I thought it was a bit pricey too but only because the engine is standard and thats what eats the money. The body work shouldnt really be described as a 'small' problem. Makes mine look 'showroom' lol. If you look on Ebay, mk4 1.8T's are ten a penny. Ive had mine on there for 3 weeks, first ambitiously, then as an auction that only went to £2200 and now as a best offer on £3200 and noone has even made an offer, not even a laughable grand or anything. Its a buyers market mate, bide your time, haggle and dont compulsive buy. Look at completed listings and make offers you think will offend as some people might be really desparate for money! Seen one for £850 BIN. Thats pretty unreal!!!

too expensive imo, cost you a few quid to have the bumpers done.
 I paid a fair bit less than that for mine on an 03 plate

Cheers for all this guys. I thought it wasn't too bad considering some of the others I have seen? It's how I want a car. Less than 90k, lowered, and standard engine so that I can tune it myself :D
But thus has got me thinking as it is like 2 hrs away  :sad:

Edit: btw he said on the thread he would accept £2600 so im not going pay the 2900 just to let you guys know. If that makes any difference :grin:
