My 325i needs my time now so I really want to sell my Cab while the sun is out. How much should I look at putting this up for. I have put it on here and piston heads but have not had any interest. Can I have honest opinions please, nothing silly,

Cheers

89 320i cab, manual 138k with a big pack of recipts. MOT till Jan 2010, 5 months tax. Blue check sports seats, good condition hood, usual electric stuff all works. Cat 2 immobilser with cert, mp3 cd player, front fogs.

Since I got it in Sep I have done the following.

Cut out and replaced metal on the small amount of rust in the boot wells. New discs and pads all round, full service including, plugs, oil, fuel and air filter, cam belt and water pump, rocker bolt replacement, heat shield replacement, oil and coolant change, gear box fluid change, rocker gasket replacement, installed recon heater fan, stripped down and cleaned all door and dash electrics I have done more but cant think at the minute, recipts + pics for everything I have done.

White doesn't seem as desirable.
Its very difficult to say not having seen the car, £2k
Auto trader would be a good guide.

I would remove the car seat & youngster and re-photo.

It's an unmolested cab in seemingly good condition, don't get many like that now

Get the car valeted, re-shoot in a nicer location and start throw on eBay with a reserve of £1990.

If you can't stand eBay then the usual classifieds (AutoTrader etc) at £2250 ono to leave room for
the inevitable tyre-kicker.

In short, I think you should easily get £2000.
