Dear all,
Need a point of view on possibly selling the prelude. Have bought a new fun car but have sold another so there is room in the garage. I have promised my wife I would sell so.......
What is a reasonable price for prelude on autotrader? (I think it will be the only manual red top on there?)
I was thinking £5300ish?

123K. 2000 VTI manual. last serviced 118K. Tax & MOT until Nov 2014. FSH. looked after.
Age related marks. Cambelt done at 95K. New battery, 2 new tyres, clean weekend car. Metal sills

Kept in garage.
The Eagle eyed among you will notice this is the ultra rare reduced salt and sugar version.

I think £1400 sounds like a very fair price for this car. Looks in beautiful condition, as well as having service history, and plenty of T&T.

I think you could ask for more than 1400, pending condition of the arches. Remember this is a 2000 plate so is the highest spec UKDM you can get. You don't see many A8 ludes up for sale so hard to judge properly.

£1800 in my opinion.

£1800 all day that looks beautiful £1400 is giving it away and lowering value of prelude's even more glwts

If that car is really in the condition that it looks in the pics then no way £1400. Worth way more. Glwts matey

TY Donald!

If the arches are good I reckon you'll do better than £1400. Yes it has 123k which can put off people who don't know the car but it does have decent history and cambelt. (And yes Honda reliability, 197Bhp, 99+ ratio box, 4WS, CTR beating performance, Heated seats... !).

I appreciate you don't want it hanging around, but I'd be more inclined to advertise it at £2200+ hoping to sell it for £1800+

It still looks (and is) a lot of car for that.

There's a few preludes on ebay knocking about and there going for around the money your asking for and there not as nice as yours, stick it up for 2 and see what happens
