WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - cpikey316_ - 21-03-2015

Wife had a bit of an argument with a post in Sainsburys in Milton Keynes, so heres my 1.8i Petrol Meridian (2000)

Need a WIW really, as I have no idea (not much is my thought, but lets see!)

Quite low miles, good engine. Body work is ok to good generally (aside from the front drivers side wing)

Drivers seat bolster has NO tears (see picture) this must be worth £60 on its own!

Drives ok, brakes fine (as fine as peugeot brakes go) got a bluetoothy stereo in there.

Need a new wing, a good clean and itll be a lovely car for many years to come!

How much do we think guys?

Roughly scrap value with that wing....

I only got £460 for a good condition 1.8 Meridian with a new clutch, service and full MOT last year. High tax, insurance and fuel costs puts people off them.


RE: WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - cpikey316_ - 21-03-2015

In all honesty, I was hoping for £250, Im aware its not worth mega bucks!! Sad

Someone who has and can put a new wing on would be the best! if it wasnt welded on, id do it myself!


RE: WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - Toms306 - 21-03-2015

It's not welded on...

Theres only two spot welds along the top which you can pop off with a screwdriver, the rest is all bolted on.

Even with a better wing you won't get much though, 1.8 Meridians just aren't sought after like the XS's, GTi's or diesels.


RE: WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - Mattcheese31 - 21-03-2015

As tom says they're not welded on, if you've got a socket set with some long extensions they are easy to remove Smile


RE: WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - cpikey316_ - 21-03-2015

TBH we want to get rid anyway, gonna go down to one car, so gonna trade the accord in for a scenic/xsara picasso type dullbus!


RE: WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - Toms306 - 21-03-2015

Might as well trade the 306 in at the same time then. Save you the hassle of fixing or selling it privately.


RE: WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - Mattcheese31 - 21-03-2015

It's gonna put the value up a couple of hundred fixing the wing imo


RE: WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - Iceman299 - 21-03-2015

I'd change the wing then trade it in. Traders tend to give high prices for part ex


RE: WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - cpikey316_ - 21-03-2015

Issue with trade in, the cars we are looking at are already worth less than the trade in value of my Honda!

Plus the plan was to take the 306 off the road, claim tax and insuance money back, save wasting it on a car which is just sat on the drive!

Women!!


RE: WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - Poodle - 21-03-2015

Yeah as the others have said really, you might get £250 in its current condition if you're a good salesman, but i'd be surprised.

Sell the honda private and fix wing then trade in 306?


RE: WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - Eeyore - 21-03-2015

Fix the wing. You can get one for about £20 and then its an easy job to change. Ive changed several now and its really not difficult!


RE: WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - cpikey316_ - 21-03-2015

Honda has other issues, I need to get a dealer to take it.

Dont want a private person banging on my door when they find out.


RE: WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - Toms306 - 21-03-2015

You've broken the Honda? How? Confused

They won't bang on your door if you're honest and mention faults when selling Wink


RE: WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - Craig-o - 23-03-2015

Chris do you still have this? What's the MOT on it?


RE: WIW - my Blue 1.8i Meridian - cpikey316_ - 08-04-2015

Wish i'd seen this earlier Craig-O!

Now for sale, got 2 months MOT on it. No Tax currently sitting unloved in my garage. Come and rescue it before I buy a polisher and use it to practice!!

Got a China wing? Buy it, stick wing on, sell for $profit$

Call it £200! Gotta be worth £500 with a normal wing!
