Price on a VYII exec

[tez]

Hey everyone,

Im not really on the lookout for a car, although this has come up and I just want to find out if its a ok price.

VYII Executive
75000kms
Serviced by the books

Car is clean and has no major dings (just minor shopping ones).

Ive been given the chance to buy it for around $11.5k. Is this an ok price, or just average due to the VE's etc.

YEp, seems like a good price.. in qld we are normally trading these for around 10 to 14 dependant on k's... sounds like a pretty good deal.

Should I buy to resell then :)

I dont particularly want it because its a auto. Manual and I'd be all over it

[holdengirl01]

Absolutely, as long as it has no work needed for safety certificate then you should eb able to make around five grand on it to sell it privately...:bravo:

I think $5k would be aiming a bit high dont you think? VYII execs are dime a dozen and not in short supply so I would think I'd only get a max of say 14 - 15k for it

[holdengirl01]

We are selling them to people for ,on averge, 15990 and upwards.. 15990 for one done around 130k.... With your kms you should make a good chunk..

2003 or 2004? Judging by what I just saw of Red Book prices on carsales.com.au and given they aren't easy to sell at the moment I think you'll probably make a bit on it but not necessarily a lot and it may take a while to get your money back. For example, it gives ave private price as $11,500 - $14,200 on a 2003 VYII auto Exec (75,000 - 95,000km), a bit more for 2004.

6 or an 8?

Ex cop?

What colour?

Its just a 6, silver in colour and is a 2004 model.
Its probably going to be a pain buying and selling it, taking into account transfer fees, etc etc.

Whats a manual conversion worth :)
