All the 90's jap stuff is only going up in value. Once they hit 25 years old you can get classic insurance and have one as a second car. In 5 years that car could be worth 7 grand with mint ones going for 10. Your not exactly waiting around for the cheap tax with them.

This, it's a relatively niche market - people think pricing on jap import stuff is mad but try and buy a pug 205gti or heaven forbid any ford older than a 95 these days and you'll see real madness :wow:



They only need to be 20 years old for classic with the right company too

Would they do the 20 year old deal on a jap import?

Did for me anyway

Depends on the company. I could only find one company (Autoline) that would insure my 95 Jap Import but not until I'm 30

The rest said they don't insure "that type of car".

They seem to apply that to certain cars and not others, they wouldnt insure me on an evo vii, but would on my current import (not an evo)

Their policies are underwritten by allianz, so a possible avenue to go direct maybe?

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha

And I thought there wasn’t much meth in the country.

Also: Park old car outside fancy house with fancy stone = huge price. Nobody’s falling for that.

Never ever sees rain either apparently. What ever way that's ment to put your mind at ease about?

Haven’t a clue. I’m willing to bet that it’s been sprayed at some point, or at least some of it. The bumpers and mud flaps are far too clean as with the front grille. Silver is also the worst colour for them.

What would be a more realistic number for it?

Closer to 4/5k?

Only said it a few weeks ago one sold here with 100k on the clock for if I remember correctly 1200. Gtfx one, black. Stored in a garage for the last 8 years too. I missed out on it by a few hours, didn’t even know it was for sale. I think at the time someone posted a dd link here to one for 7k.

I don’t know is the answer. Who knows. Jap stuff is mental.

Bear in mind they’re asking prices not sold prices. Who knows..

I'd say €3K would be a very good price for it

I think around €5k would be about right. I wouldn’t pay that for one but plenty would.

I'd give him 2k for it since it's a 20V and not a 1.3..... Who cares anyways if it's a 20V... Everyone out there is gonna see it as a 1.3 anyways. There is no appeal in it for me, it still looks like something your Grand mother bought in the 90's when you were making your communion. He would not get a cent more then 2k from me. It would have to be in great condition to.

I think you’re being a bit harsh on it, fair enough they don’t look anything special, and 160bhp isn’t a lot by modern standards but the 8500rpm redline makes the car special IMO. Plus you have the rarity and the very thing that you don’t like about them makes them great.

Redline is only 7700 on them isnt it?

So, you don't like it so it's worth €2k, basically?
