Hi All, I am going to sell my Fronty to buy a newer version, I think they are 1998 onwards, it's going to be a SWB 2.2TDi Fronty. My question is how much is my Fronty worth, I don't want to be cheeky, nor am I going to give it away either, It has done 125K
It did have a massive major service about 10 months ago. This is what was done.

Hello mate, I paid £3200 12 months ago for my 99 2.2dti rs so I would say about £2000- £2500 in good nick

Would be interested to know how much you will be looking for for the 2.8 swb

Hi Ian, TYVM for that Mate. has your 2.2 DTi got Air Con, I only ask as mine has air con and in the summer it's awesome, to have freezing cold air in the Fronty. On Saturday it's having it's MOT, it should fly through though. I have had no offers, as only over the weekend I thought about getting a newer verion of the Fronty.

I only want a fair price. If you like no pressure, I can always give you first refusal once I get an idea of how much to ask for it. ATB. Reeco

Cheers for that Reeco, and no mine hasnt got aircon but when its hot I take the sunroof out and stick it in the boot and sometimes i take the roof off completely.

Hi Ian, Cheers for that, if I get the fair price and you don't want it, I won't be offened in anyway. ATB. Reeco

Hi All, Anybody have an idea of a price. ATB. Reeco

A quick Google found a few 2.8 Sports's for sale, ranging between 1300-1500.

I was looking at one local to me at a private dealers late last year and got them down to 1250 - but I walked away.

At the end of the day it is only worth as much as someone is prepared to pay for it.

I agree wth Trugga, a few more lived in 2.8's on ebay are going for around £900, with the work you have done to yours you should get more.

Ill go with £1350 to £1600.

TYVM to Ian, Lawrence and Ste for taking the time to offer me advice. I will be asking £ 1,250 for it as that seems a fair price, It's having it's MOT on Saturday. I will advertise it locally if it doesn't sell in the first week, I will ask Peter to put it up on here. ATB. Reeco
