Trade in price for 2003 WRX

[clan2_uk]

I have been toying with the idea of selling my scoob (2003 WRX, UK car, 15000 miles with a couple of extras) and going for an A4 diesel or a new model Golf GT TDI as a change of job now means I will need to use my car during the day. Two dealers later and both told me that they would have to phone me the next day with a valuation because they just wouldn't sell a Subaru on their forecourt. Then the phone calls came in, both between £10000 and £10500 !! yes for a 2 year old car. A phone call to a Subaru dealer later and "yes that is about the right price although we would probably retail it for about £14500." Apparently for a few months a WRX was losing £700 a month. I am now totally pxxxed off and looking at different options of what to do now and this includes never buying another Subaru.

What would a 2001 Bug-eye be worth then

[jamie_wood]

Dont know what they are worth now!!

Tried to sell mine for around 14K but no takers at all!!! Only one call from a bloomin spoon!

The cars only 18 months old too.

Problem is that I cant offer finance I guess!!

Everyone lives on the "never, never" these days

I think I will try the autotrader for a couple of weeks maybe around £13K and see if there is any interest, I'm not holding out much hope right enough but its probably worth £39.

look every car loses money .some are just worst than others.but i bet no other car has given you the same delights as a SCOOBY.

i lost about £1200 on a Mini over 2 years which is great.but dont let that get you down , just deal with it and drive it for longer m8.
