:ttiwwp:

:chuckle: iX's can vary, good nick ones can fetch a nice sum though! Is yours a genuine LHD one? Put need pics fella, then people will be able to tell! (a bit more).

The only thing i can say is theres an iX over here in Jersey and the owners looking for 3k. Its LHD, roughly 50k and pretty mint from what i've heard. Seems reasonable as they're rare cars, but not as sort after... but people still snap them up! Thats about all i can say on this...

Anything around £2.5k to £5.5k. Need pics for a more accurate valuation.

This is probably the weirdest one yet! Anything is only worth what someone's prepared to pay for it, so in that respect, whatever you paid, it was a good deal!! Supply and demand determines values, so seeing as supply of 325iXs in the UK is virtually zero and demand is also virtually zero then value is a bit 'pin the tail on the donkey'. An interesting find though.

That's quite a cool car. Nice boot spoiler, seems to have some sort of gurney flap - is it made by zender? Seems to have the IX side skirts annd arches. I would have had that for £300, could make a really interesting car.

More pics please!

WHAAAAT? Profit you say? What an awful thing to do.

Down with capitalism! Boooo

(That said, it does appear to be a rotten turd with a few morsels and as such is very ambitiously priced)

I can only assume that chidley is not a car salesman by profession.......

'unexpected bills force sale.' Using such a statement as a reason for selling is hardly going to yield positive results. Especially with the clear mechanical and cosmetic issues.

52,000 miles not bad though......if it's genuine.

Id rather spend £2,500 on a half decent sport and bring it back to life.

But that's just my opinion.

Good luck with the sale is all I can say.
