jimmy you had a bidder at like almost 7,000. why dont you just lower the price.

whats your time worth to wreck the van? it will be at least a days work maybe 2.


if your dead set on wrecking the van how much you want for the rear tyres?

you will end up with parts you cant sell also. keep that in mind.

Unfortunately buyers really don't care what it owes you. The vehicle is only worth what people are willing to pay. I'd love it if I could sell mine for what it owes me. I'd think about retiring.

Hey jimbo, you have to take into account that there are dozens on lwb vans out there that are registered and running, for under 2grand, why would they pay 10 for something that they can get for a fraction. I have not had the courage to total my bills yet, but i suspect it will owe me a good 50-60 grand when i am finished, thank god i am not selling, i dont think i would get anything close, unless a beddy virgin stumbled in drunk.  ;D Cars depreciate the minute you drive them out the drive. I guess mate, if you think your van is worth that much, keep it.  ;)

I believe, that what you want for a van and what you can get for it is the issue!!!    I lost $2500 in about 18 monthes on my van ; but thought a sale with the cash was a lot better than waiting, advertising and putting up with tyre kickers was the way t go!!!!
I know that mine was worth a bit more; but it's gone to a real Beddie lover lol  Cheers Brian O

just after i got my van I saw a van advertised that was regularly driving around my area.. it was advertised for $17k with $90k of receipts..
I dont think losing $2k is that bad really.. better yet, keep the van, and do it up, you've already spent some money, why not finish the job?
