I have an option on a 300tdi ES with 220000 miles on the clock. Never been off road, but a few body marks.
Anyone no what it may be worth :?:

i know of a N reg 300 TDI with 200k miles on the clock going at a volvo dealer for £3500 but then i just got a S Reg 98 Full dealer history auto 300 tdi with 155k miles for £2k in great nick.... just needs the latest service + cambelt change. kinda a mine field. i would prob expect to pay in the region of atleast 2K depending on the condition.

I paid £800 for a k reg 180k 12 months mot. off ebay. Not the bargain I thought it was though as the floor and rear crossmember and inner sills were completely rotten. So don't ask me how it got an MOT.

think prices are a little bit every where at the mo, seen them dear too. i paid 700 for a 300 180,000 with h/ gasket gone . was about 6 months ago.definatly not tidy. the other day seen a td5 for 3,995. have a good look through auto trader and gauge it from there. alan......

The whole used 4x4 market is in severe decline at the moment. The market has been swamped by people offloading their 4x4's because they either bought them as a status symbol and now every chav and chavette has one, or because of the adverse publicity has made them seem to be socially unacceptable. But the main reason is because they never take em offroad. Many car sales won't buy a 4x4 unless they already have a customer lined up.

I got this one a few weeks ago:
(http://i41.photobucket.com/albums/e267/heb-photos/V8-01.jpg)
Late 1994 3.9 V8 ES with 80k on the clock, service history up to 73k miles, only done 8000 in 4 years.
For the MOT it needs/needed new discs & pads all round, rear tail pipe, electrics looking at (fix by replacing the fuses and one connector!! :D ) both front brake callipers and both trailing arm bushes on the chassis end. Paid £950 for it. :wink:
Stuff to do after the MOT:
Fix the split in the roof, small plate to weld to the top of the passenger side inner wing , rear sunroof motor, sunroof ECU and one switch.

if you get a grand for it you will be doing very well, last couple of discos ive sold were nightmare to get rid of, good condition with off road gear but still had to give them away.
dont know how they sell them for 2, 3, 4 grand but you look in any paper or auto trader etc, the same 300tdi's mileages, specs etc all very similar, some will be 995, some 4995, never made any sense to me
-
I have just paid 1700 for my v8 es on 100k on the clock full service history and all paper work with it. this is a 96 on a n reg i thought i paid over the odds but in great condtion thats way i paid that amount.
-
....the old addage "whatever anyones willing to pay"
..give it a good look over, test drive etc, price up any work it will need, then barter from there!
beware with the disco, one which looks immaculate outside, may well be rotten where you cant see, check the usual places listed on another topic in here somewhere.. :wink:

must have only been three or four years at the latest got me 200 tdi was a good one, boy did i struggle as soon as i phoned they were sold. different story now ??. alan......
