    A lot depends on where you are as well.

    If you look at completed listings on ebay, they have gone between £750 to £2000, maybe the £2000 one was good, or the buyer got carried away.

    Or the shill. ;)
    The greater danger, for most of us, lies not in setting our aim too high and falling short; but in setting our aim too low and achieving our mark

    I didnt say £1500, I said I would like around a £1000 for it - The garage said to put it up at £1500
    £1000 would then be the deposit on my new van x I am genuinely just after some advice to sell her. Thank you


    stick it on eBay on BIN £1500 or best offer. People will come and kick the wheel, poke things and then offer you a grand.

    Price seems just about right.
    (It wasn't you offering the £150 earlier was it?)

    im sorry i missed this thread because that van was worth over a grand any day of the week
    as for needing service history to sell it, well thats just a joke at this age
    the only downside this van had was it would not have had power steering and that is a negative
    but you try and find a small tidy van for under £1500 and you will struggle
    the link to that van at £695 was a herring to catch a sprat
