Car Forum / Australian Car Forums / General Car Topics (Australian group) / February 2005FS: VT Commodore Exec
Bog standard 98 Commy Exec 124,000kms 12 months rego Regularly serviced at Holden dealer. Good mechanical cond but cosmetic damage (scratches and a few minor dings) Silver Will throw in sheepskin seat covers I'm going to check with the insurance company to claim on some of the dings so I may be able to remove most of those before sale. A dealer has offered a tad below $10k as a trade-in so I'm offering it at this price to anyone who wants it. Will have photos available soon when my new camera arrives (last one got pinched) Car is in Sydney Nthn Beaches but will consider delivery anywhere in mainland Aus for cash. email: wakeupcall@optushome.com.au.REMOVE On 26/2/05 5:00 PM, in article 38al4tF5huia1U1@individual.net, "Uncle Bully" <wakeupcall@optushome.com.au.REMOVE> wrote: > Bog standard 98 Commy Exec > 124,000kms [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] > > email: wakeupcall@optushome.com.au.REMOVE Jesus, and the commodore drivers always go on about magna resale value! that's 7 years old.

Hence why I said, if your a dickhead.... about 9K too much as far as I'm concerned, however, this is Australia, and there is certainly no shortage of dickheads out there that would consider that fully sick car to be a bargain. >>that's 7 years old. >> >>How old is a $10,000 magna ? >> >May '96. www.redbook.com.au 1996 MITSUBISHI MAGNA TE Sedan Executive 4dr Auto 4sp 3.0i (Apr onwards) average kms 150,000 - 180,000 Trade in price guide* $3,800 - $5,400 National average price - private sale* $5,100 - $7,300 Price when new (RRP) $29,650 1998 MITSUBISHI MAGNA TF Sedan Executive 4dr Auto 4sp 3.0i average kms 120,000 - 150,000 Trade in price guide* $5,000 - $6,800 National average price - private sale* $6,500 - $8,800 Price when new (RRP) $29,800 I think I found it now. 2000 MITSUBISHI MAGNA TJ Sedan Executive 4dr Auto 4sp 3.5i (Aug onwards) average kms 90,000 - 110,000 Trade in price guide* $9,400 - $11,500 National average price - private sale* $11,100 - $13,700 Price when new (RRP) $30,290 1998 HOLDEN COMMODORE VT Sedan Executive 4dr Auto 4sp 5.0i average kms 120,000 - 150,000 Trade in price guide* $9,000 - $11,000 National average price - private sale* $10,600 - $13,200 Price when new (RRP) $33,600 >>>that's 7 years old. >>> [quoted text clipped - 34 lines] >National average price - private sale* $10,600 - $13,200 >Price when new (RRP) $33,600 sorry picked the 5L above 1998 HOLDEN COMMODORE VT Sedan Executive 4dr Auto 4sp 3.8i average kms 120,000 - 150,000 Trade in price guide* $7,100 - $9,000 National average price - private sale* $8,600 - $10,900 Price when new (RRP) $30,500 >>>>that's 7 years old. >>>> [quoted text clipped - 42 lines] >National average price - private sale* $8,600 - $10,900 >Price when new (RRP) $30,500 Magna holds it's price well eh...especially seeing no-one paid list price.

Volvos must come close to winning the "worst" guernsey. Someone posted yesterday from Brisbane on another car-related forum that he was considering a low-km 1998 V70-XC for $17k; they were $78k list-price in '98. Also, I was recently looking at immaculate one-owner $5k-$6k Volvo 940GLE's, which is the sort of money that just-about approximates "zero" in car terms; they were a $50k car 10-11 years ago.

It is hard to shake off an image. i.e. Jaguar had an "image" from the 'Leyland' years and with the "Noddys" around, it will be difficult to shake that "image" :-) Mitsubishi Magna has an "IMAGE" (big one), Mitsi AU should change the name of the nrxt Magna sized car, to try and shake that "IMAGE", otherwise they'll go into under!!! :-) Ron Forg <Forg@zip.com.au> wrote in news:42215fb9$0$6162$afc38c87 @news.optusnet.com.au: > ... > > The Falcon isn't that great either [quoted text clipped - 7 lines] > 940GLE's, which is the sort of money that just-about approximates "zero" > in car terms; they were a $50k car 10-11 years ago.

I heard a story on the radio about a guy who lost $150k on his 2 year old Mercedes S600. That must hurt. > I heard a story on the radio about a guy who lost $150k on his 2 year old > Mercedes S600. That must hurt. Aren't they designed to last *much* longer than that? What sort of w.nker goes out and buys uber-expensive S class, tries to unload it in 2 years, and has the gall to bitch about it? Oh, that's right - the same one that buys a block of units under an airport approach/departure path and beside a freeway and then starts on about the noise problem.

Don't hold your breath at that money Bully. Trade in prices are often pumped up to "do the deal", and that's a fair bit over what a series one Exec can be had almost anywhere. Off load it to the dealer and save yourself the hassle. -- Regards, Noddy. >> A dealer has offered a tad below $10k as a trade-in so I'm offering it at >> this price to anyone who wants it. [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Off load it to the dealer and save yourself the hassle. I'm flexible on price as long it is the same or slightly more than what I already have. I'd like to at least offer it privately before it gets recycled onto a yard at $13k. Ebay has free Car Ads next week, so I'll see what happens with that. |
