Rough guide to Saxo prices...

[MTR]

Can anyone please estimate the top wack i should be paying for a Saxo?

Only interested in westcoasts, VTR's and VTS'. Yeah... i know that's kinda vauge but just a rough guide would be great.... many thanks in advance.

[liamk15]

theres loads of things that determine the price but id say 3500-4000 would be max for a bog standard vts

[MTR]

I guess i should be more specific. I estimate to have a £2000 budget. What year and milage is resonable for that price bracket. Again... all help is greatly received.

For £2k, you should be able to pick up a half decent VTR. 70k~

Might manage a VTS, just not the best ones.

i payed £2200 for my completely standartd mk2 saxo vts with 69k miles and 2 owners from new 6 months ago and since then saxo prices have dropped abit, my mate just bought a mk2 vts with 55k miles for £2100. mind you it took us both months of searching to find minters but you should be able to get a mk2 vts minter for £2000 if u look hard enough

That sounds good, may stretch to £2200. So for £2000 i'm looking at a decent VTR minimum. What year and milage VTR should I get for that price. If it's a newer car I may go down the VTR or even westcoast route. Insurance shouldn't be too bad as i'm 27, but every penny counts at times!

if every penny counts m8 avoid a saxo, I bought a vts with 60K on the clock 6months ago and i av spent around a grand on it since then, they look amazin and go like a rocket but they drain your money, but i love mine!!!!!!!!!

I didn't quite man it like that, any money saved on costs is more to put into the car after!

I just stuck on what model to get at the moment.

Any other thoughts guys?

W reg VTR for 1500 sounds great, i'd have thought it may be a tad higher. I assume though that was a good deal and i'll have to look hard for a comparable price?

[SAM33R]

honestly if you look around hard enough mate, you can even find a 53 reg for £1900

just go on auto trader, take a look around for private sellers, and knock the price down

easy as

[MTR]

What milage is acceptable for around the £2000 mark? [VTR]

Many thanks for the input.

[SAM33R]

i haven't paid past the £2000 mark,

but accept no more than around 40-50k

the W reg one i had, had 47k on the clock mate

[MTR]

Big thanks to SAM33R. At least i know the limits for my budget thanks to you. Many thanks, I'll look for a decent £2k VTR i think unless i can find a great Westcoast.

[SAM33R]

good luck fella
