Priced to sell, or browbeaten by fools, either way it's time for a change.

It's your money at the end of theday, but it's too cheap IMO!!
Gotta be worth £15K minimum (at least), all day long at that mileage.

If I were to advertise mine tommorow, with 89K miles, I'd advertise it at between £16-17K.

Having bought within the last few weeks, I'd like to think I know how much these are selling for in the current climate.
I think you're being slightly optimistic.
Because of the Remap/brakes etc I reckon yours should be priced in the £15k region. But obviously I've not seen your car so that is just an estimate.

and everyone else?

Funny change of tack from a discreet estate to the big wing brigade.

Anyway glad to see my marketing is attracting some attention.

Last post, in this thread......

As I'm sure your perfectly aware of, what I'd advertise it for and what I expect to sell it for are two different figures, however generally there wouldnt be more than 5-10% parity in those numbers.

Not really, as well as the P1 I have a Honda Integra Type-R as well, thats got a big wing also and is a coupe, but I've owned an S4 Avant for a year that I sold 6 months ago. I buy cars becasue I like the car, not for its body type/use etc. I just decided the P1 was the thing for me at the moment. The missus car is the family car, mine is just for me! I apologise very much if you feel I've wasted your time, certainly never my intention.

Good luck with it anyway, from the info you gave me I've no doubt its a goodun, good history and looked after by people who know their stuff, you can't ask for any more.
