P1 Resale Value

[Paul Caden]

I am wavering on turning in my P1 in favour of a WR1 (yes, I have found a new, unregistered one!) but I am having difficulty in putting a price on the car. The spec is:

- Aug 2001 (Y)

- 14 000 miles

- FSH (every 6 months without fail!)

- ScoobySport exhaust

- Excellent condition

Can anybody suggest a private retail price and a trade-in price?

Hi mate, Parkers price guide for 30k on the clock is around £14500-£15000 but considering yours has half the miles and a few xtras, it should be a bit more.

I'm no expert though mate, i just filled in them boxes on parkers

Hi mate , used to sell cars for a living , i would say you would get about 15k at a trader but a private sale you would look at getting between 17-19k depends on market at time of sale

Thanks for the info guys. An update: I have decided that I like the P1 so much (and the resale values are rubbish!) that I am going to keep it and buy it lots of presents inc. uprated brakes, droplinks, new exhaust system, bumpsteer and geometry checks.

After all that I will be looking to optimise the performance side.

Speaking of performance, is the next rolling road day being considered and are any dates in the pipeline yet? I would be keen to attend the next one...
