Curious as to what my motor is currently worth?

This is a UK car with A/C, sunroof.

Apexi PFC
HKS Back Box
Un-silenced mid pipe
Stock Jap downpipe

Earth Kit


Engine with 34K miles put in July 07
Chassis 100,341 miles
New oil cooler line pipes July 07















The car is running fine now. When I done the engine swap I replaced the vac lines in the rats nest etc. The car is currently running on stock ECU. I do use it just to run around at the moment.

I have an Apexi ECU which needs fitted and mapped. While I\'m onthe stock ECU I do not go above 3Krpm and I do not use any boost. (just to be safe).


I basically don\'t have the time or money at the moment to drive down to WGT to get it mapped.

Curious as to what it\'s worth. Thanks for your time!

about £5.50 - how would you like paying ??

not sure on the value - a lot depends on how much you want and how long you want to hold onto the car for ( if you want top dollar for it )

£5.50 ?? Sweet!! I can buy erm.... SFA with that! lol

Well if its any consolation i saw a black RX go through an auction a few days ago for 4k was a 95 reg with lover 100km on the clock! it didnt have any information reguarding history either!

Its a uk spec for a start so that comes with a premium, lets face it cheaper insurance form the ofset is a good thing :driving
I woof in your general direction.

Jimjitsu

its worth what someone is willing to pay for it and what your willing to take for it i guess best thing to do is advertise at what you want then see what happens

Jim_rx7

What\'s the going rate for a UK Rx7 of my spec then?

Paul1982

I\'d say its worth from £4k-£5k personally - they are cheaper ones out they but this is a UK model and looks very nice!

Jim_rx7

Surely more no? I see Jap ones with 60K miles on them go for about £5K. My car should (in theory) have another 25K miles on it.

shafster

i would say around the 4-5k mark considering well sorted ones with loads of mods go from 6k. the fact that the engine hasnt been rebuilt will put off a few buyers as engines can go from anything over 30k-40k miles

you can stick it on ebay with a reserve and see if it gets close to that. will be interesting to see

Engine with 34K miles put in July 07???
Doesn\'t that mean it\'s had a new engine put in?
:Laugh LOL

Just says to me that the engine just gone in will need a rebuild very soon - unless he\'s forgot to mention if the engine was rebuilt before it went in

leon

A well maintained engine shouldnt go at 34k! (unless something suporting it dies) hell havnt there been guys on here that have had an engines run to near 100k before it decided to give up the ghost? Agreed with what shafster said (jeesh m8 knew you on imoc and mr2oc) the engine is a big put off for buyers, especialy to those without the know. :wiggle  I feel these cars should be worth more than they are. it\'s comparable to the supra performance wise! yet rarely do you see a supra TT go for under 4k even with starship mileage, unless its realy tatty and something wrong.
I woof in your general direction.

Jim_rx7

Yeah, my old engine at 100K miles went pop so I fitted one with 34K miles last month. It should last a long time tbh if looked after.

It\'s no wonder prices are so low for rx7\'s if people spread rumours of engines dying at 30 or 40K miles.
