Bobthebeard Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Having decided a few months ago to sell my 1990 Honda Prelude (well known car on here to some) I put it on ebay for £950. Only mongs/chancers replied. One turned up having driven a 40 mile trip to offer me £500. No. Sacked ebay and put classified ad on gumtree. (Ok, still ebay) Only one reply so far, admittedly only after 24 hours. Just said 500. No "hello, I can offer you 500, would you be interested?" No. Just "500". Grr.The car is lovely, had lots spent and done to it by me and MikeKnight of this parish. 78,000 miles and drives like a dream. No FTP ever! Is it really worth so little? Would have thought £950 ish a fair price. Refurbished alloys with recent matching tyres, fully serviced with new timing belt and waterpump... Blah blah...Only seems to attract mongbids!

skattrd Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 BTB hang on to it if you can. If I could justify another Honda I'd have it.I have a feeling these are on the up, An Aerodeck sold recently for over £3k and I'd expect Preludes to be in a similar price range. dugong and Bobthebeard 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Furious Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 I would have thought 950 is reasonable, I have no idea what Preludes are worth but its a 90's 'classic' Honda in good shape with low miles, gotta be worth a grand...unfortunately when selling cars the normal rules of engagement don't seem to apply Gone are the days when you rang up, went and appraised the vehicle in person, took a test drive, made an offer etc etc Its allHow much for CASH TODAYArrange a time to view and don't turn upStupid low offers via textSwaps for a 26 owner Impreza sport with fucked STI bodykitWin auction then turn up and haggle over price expecting showroom conditionetc etc Puts me right off ever selling a car again mercrocker, Urko and Bobthebeard 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruffgeezer Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 No rating, no spec, not suitable for sporty engines or classics, not to use more than 1 bottle between oil changes......I would bet its the shittiest Valu Brand budget oil available that is normally a mix of whatever is left in the bottom of their bulk tanks and optimistically labeled 10W40 that has been rebranded into shiny Castrol bottles. It can be sold as it is because pretty much anything runny and slippery is better than no oil at all and most folk dont know any better.They should stick Vauxhall branding on them then, they are the only modern car that should carry mpg ratings for fuel and oil.

mk1_4dr Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 That BA3 is a lovely looking thing. Almost identical to my old one apart from the badermatic box yours has. Still, they're not sports cars just incredible cruisers. £950 is on the money I would've thought, just hold out for a buyer that'll look after it.

Just because of the level of idiotic replies to the adverts! If anyone wants it on here and promises to look after it I will consider selling it at a decent discount. Edit. Wrong thread I know, but it also comes with the original steel wheels and trims. Matching Nexen nblue tyres with around 1,000 miles on 'em.As you were...

Cavcraft Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Two cycle related grumps from me. First Captain Cockwash in an Astra who, after overtaking me then decided to turn left very sharply and very quickly (with no indication of course), which nearly wiped me out. Today some travelling penile infection in a (new shape) Scirocco just had to overtake me in the city centre, then swerve in front of me at the lights 20 yards in front. I bet you felt great about that, just a shame the fat bastard on the mountain bike was in front of you still 1/2 mile or so later. strangeangel and privatewire 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scaryoldcortina Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Or that bike that someone bolted a train horn with air tank onto . Someone brought a train horn into the garage once and asked me to test it with the airline. My compressor is a 10hp jobbie delivering around 35cfm@150psi, and we were in a tin shed. Ow.
