What's a type s worth nowadays?

Post by omgtr » Mon Apr 04, 2016 6:33 pm

A bit new to the forum and I've had my type s for a few months. I paid 4500 for it and only bought it because I loved the way it looked and its rarity. Not sure now if I got robbed or the price is about right lol

It's a 1996 diamond white with 80k miles.on coil overs, immaculate interior. S/s exhaust and full service history.

Let me know what you guys think

That is on the high side, but at the same time the mileage is on the low side. If the bodywork is mint then I wouldn't say you were robbed as such. The seller got good money, but you could just as easily have bought a Type-S for less but needed to spend a small fortune on bringing it up to standard.

Welcome to the club by the way :)

Thanks dude. The bodywork is all straight. Do have a rust spot just by the rear spoiler - doesn't look terminal to be fair.
Does need a few little jobs doing on it which I will get round to once I get the time.
When I purchased it there was nothing I could compare it to as not seen one for sale in a long time. I may be looking on the wrong places but does anyone know how many of these there are in the uk?
