whats it worth?

[dimma]

1993 williams with 150.000 miles.its been sitting outside for 3 years and hasnt been started in that time but was going well when parked up.i havent seen the car but was talking to the owner on the phone and he is looking £500.the car was stolen when a few months old and had its interior stripped out so its got no dash plaque.it was replaced with a 3 interior.any ideas on the cars value?

sounds like a money pit to be honest with you, and after a lot of money and effort it still wouldnt be worth more than 1.5k mint with the crash history, they wouldnt have wrote it off for the sake of an interior, a lot of these ex wright offs are advertised as having previous light damage but i would be very weary,

i was going to buy it for parts or maybe a track car.

offer him £50 ;)

£500 is worth it to strip parts off.

i was thinking that maybe there wouldnt be that much working onit after sitting for so long.it hasnt been going in 3 years.

And you get upset when i say you talk a lot of shit
WTF sort of advice is that ??

as long as there is oil in the engine ,it will be fine .
most cars in the same condition will start with a fresh battery ,you may want to disconnect the injector leccy connections and crank that way for a bit
to build up oil pressure / circulate oil .
some will need faffing about cleaning earth points etc .

either way ,its worth £150 in scrap value , so anything between that
and £500 is a winner imo.

i bought it at £200.turns out its been sitting 6 years.it was near dark when i went for it and i was expecting it to be worse than it seems to be.roll on tomorrow till i get a good look at it.
