wrightster Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 Still looking for a tin top, i am going to look at a R 1998 astra mk3 gsi 53k 2 ownwers FVSH , it looks like a mint car from the pics the guy wants around 5K for it (which i know is quite a lot for a mk3 but i do like em !! parkers price guide reckons about 5k in A1 condition, glasses guide (on auto express site) reckons about 2750.00 !! i dont want to be diddled but i do like a car with a bit of style ( i know you may disagree that a mk3 astra has style but i think they look a lot better than the mk4s having seen/driven a few sri versions lately) anyway whats your opinion of prices for this car (roughly) thanks again - i know i have gone on about this for a bit but i do value the opinions of people on this site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samcooke Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 Values on Max Power favourites like the GSi are much harder to pin down than on decent cars, due to the oddball demand. If it's a 1.8 - don't pay anything like that but the 2.0 ones have strangely strong values and £4-5k seems normal. In all seriousness though... DON'T BUY ONE Get a GTi-6 - similar age, similar mileage for under £4k and fifty times the car. SEOT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minghis Posted April 23, 2003 Share Posted April 23, 2003 £5k for an R plate Astra is a bit high in my opinion, even if it's the top of the range. I'd suggest value at £4k, try to get somewhere in between if you really want one. I had a '98 Rover 200Vi a few years ago and that (apart from being a bit small) was highly entertaining. It was also remarkably fast - do a bit of research, you might be pleasantly surprised. Minghis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
