Hi there,

UK seller.

I have a very good condition inside and out, p reg xk8, 80,000 miles new engine, 135,000 miles in all, service history. I was going to part ex for a range rover sport, they offered just £1000. Seen them going on Autotrader for £3000/4000.

Just wondering the going price, and how long if I put on Autotrader would you think it would take. Dammed the veneer is worth over a £1000.

Wayne, what year?

 

Sorry, p reg, 1996.

Coupe or Convertible - there will be a price difference (convertible worth a bit more BUT more demand if put up for sale in Spring or early Summer. )

I would have thought £3k - possibly more - is realistic in the UK as long as it is pretty much rust-free and has a fairly long MOT.

 

Hi there,

Its a coupe. Yes I was hoping at least £3000. So sad really of a car like this, i just hate selling it for this, but.

I just sold my 97 with 100K mi for $5000. Considering that it was totally rust free and I had replaced almost all the suspension parts it seemed a shame, but it was what I expected.

 

I guess the dealer doesn't really want it. Depending on his forecourt prices , he'll either need to pass it on in the trade or try to sell it--with a margin to cover comebacks.

 

Hi and thx all.

Anyone want to buy my car ??? Other than autotrader is there anywhere else to advertise ???

ebay, Gumtree. check out auction ones on ebay. if theres any on auction , see what the end price is . Also see the going rate on fixed price ones and undercut them-- if its not too cheap !

 

XK8 prices are on the rise try to find a good convertible for under £5k. I wouldn't even consider selling for under £3k if I were you.

 

I have 98 XK8 Convertible.
50K miles..
Ive been offered 10k on more than one occasion.
A neighbor rang my doorbell with cash in his hand.

Don't underestimate the street value for these cars. It's a very reasonable way to drive a nice car.

 

Seems like the one with the lowest mileage on ebay right now has a major accident in it's history. The rest are hovering around in the $7000 and up range.

 

Hi Wayne. Where is the car based? Can you post some pictures?
