Prices seem to vary a lot even on here, the 03 Sable for sale now is well over a grand more than I paid for an 04, albeit 25k more miles but with a lot of history and no broken lights (£80-90 to fix) scrappy bumper and bits not fixed on  properly.  I know people always want the most for their cars but some are a bit optimistic. There are some knowlegdible people on here so what are cars worth per year? Mine 04, 3 or 4 very minor marks, no aircon or hard top, 78k lots of history 12 months MOT I paid £2500 in july.

2.25-2.6  is about your range id say right now for our car, ive put alot of time into looking into car prices due to me having to bargain with the insurance company and I've been looking hard at replacements.

Prices here are phenomenal... You won't buy a pfl over here for less than €2500... I'd buy a cat c if I could find one for the right price

It nearly would be @tomaky but the vrt is the killer... I'd probably buy one here cheaper damaged... I was looking at a sable 2004 in the north for 1800€ but the vrt is that again nearly...

The problem is everything going up and even going
Higher and wages are going down or overtime stopped
No one in uk can hardly afford  a car.

The car my only luxury i got rid of the tv package
Of 70 a month.

Kept the car instead , food sky heigh and
A good night out around £150 that a night

So it the car that keeps me going
But that it .

I noticed they sell these cars but there soon back,

The good thing is our cars are still
Around but there getting rare and price are still good,
I got offered £3000 but i no it worth £1500
But i love it couldn't sell my baby.
