How much do you guys think it will go for?

Has it had flap delete and/or decoke on the inlets? That's probably going to make a difference to value as it's a pretty chunky job/risk for a potential new owner.....

Edited because didn't see the mileage.

Edit: Didn't see the mileage.

I don’t think so, I don’t have any receipts for a flap delete or de-coke

How much do you think?

how much will it go for ?
 

its like anything else i'm afraid
its worth what someone is willing to pay
i put my house on the market a few years ago for £285,000
(estate agents valuation)
12 months later i took £240,000 only had 2 viewings and just that 1 offer

Back to the S8
i've had 2 of these and what an incredible machine they are
there defo a buyer out there
i would do a webuyanycar.com on it and stick £2000 on top
that's a good starting point

its the best colour/good mileage/B&O
get some good pics up on here first its free
services are most important on these

Im hoping around 11-£12000

Personally I think that's a bit high, considering this later car with half the miles and even better spec, being retailed with the protection a retailer offers

And it's been for sale since 25th November

I'd love to say what AT suggests as a private sale price, but the number plate you provided, KU56JWY, is a Porsche 911 Turbo apparently... :Confused:

In my opinion, car is worth around £10k being an early car (pre-facelift) and only the spec gives it that price. Unfortunately it will only achieve that price for someone who knows about these cars and is looking for a good one, although the lack of flap removal is a negative as the new owner will have to budget for it soon.

Prices seem to be a bit stable at the moment (looking on AT), maybe even up slightly. The dilemma is that letting it go for <£10k is throwing it away as it is worth more to you. Plus, you can't really replace it with anything for the same money. I would put it up for something like £10,750 and see if you get any bites

Good luck with the sale.

Thank you for your replies, Here’s some recent pictures, should I get a pic of anything else?

One thing I would comment on is to me the aftermarket wheels may restrict the potential market.

For the odd buyer they will be perfect, but the majority of buyers would want original if possible.

It may sell better with them on.

I agree with this. The guy that wants to pay a premium for a low mileage example of a classic, doesn't necessarily want the wrong wheels, modified exhaust, aftermarket rear seat entertainment and probably not the flat bottom wheel either....

You're looking for a very niche buyer with this sale imo, which means it will need to be cheap or you will need to be very patient.

I have the original wheels and steering wheel if that’s a deal breaker, I’d happily put it back to standard and the exhaust is as factory as I could get it to look without the restrictiveness of factory

It would definitely make it a more attractive proposition to anyone whose contemplating buying one as the "original look" is what makes them so appealing, alongside the V10 of course. You would get some return on the wheels and steering wheel by selling them separately as they'd fit multiple cars and you won't be left with S8 wheels and the standard steering wheel that will have limited appeal.

That's the way I'd see it, good luck with the sale +++
