the pics of the car really do let it down i would class it was mint for it's age.

Looks like a decent example.

What do you mean by 'mint for it's age'?

Surely mint is mint, regardless of age. If it has age related marks on it then it's not mint.

you asking way over the market value

Wisebuyer valuation - £800 good condition (which yours looks to be) take a look elsewhere for similiar conditioned cars

Have you got the space to break it?

Someone would prob have the engine for a conversion.

Bought my old man one last year, although not SRi. Was a 1.8 LS. Same color, 55k, full vauxhall history and 1 owner from new. 12 month MOT and 6 month tax. Paid £450 for it.

Its strong money for it, when you can pick up a Gsi etc for around the same price.

But then again, my mate sold his 02 plate SRi 130 for £1200 with over 130k on it. His "looked" better though which is what got him that sort of money. Sold within 2 days of me putting it on Gumtree too.

Its not just Vectra's that applies to though. Like for like, diesels tend to go for abit more than the petrol equivilent.

must admit aswell, id of much preferred an SRI 130, insurance wasn't coming back too dear and the diesel vectras are really cheap to run i found

i'd be advertising it for around 900 but leave room for haggling
