Hey guys,

Am looking at a 05 DC5S on sale, but the mileage is pretty high at 110 xxx kms.
However full logs and service history is available and current owner drives a lot on the highways as a daily.

For sure its gonna hit the resale value hard next time.. so 2 main questions :

how much would you roughly pay? and will it be easy to sell a 150-160xx km dc5s in the future?

cheers

If the drivers does alot of Highway driving, i wouldn't be to concerned bout the kms as those Kms are very healthy for the engine.

Well u'd be looking mid to high 20's.
Depends on the condition of the body, interior etc.

my 05 type s has just done over 60k and i do highway drivin.. only when i need to drive otherwise its sits in the drive way but yeah people wont believe that it was mainly hiway driving when i go to sell it!

I reckon u should b lookin at low 20's for a type s with that many km's! as i would expect 26-27k for my car if i was to sell it today.

And if u wanna make sure of highest resale make sure its serviced on time and looked after!

05 110XXX quite high. if selling out at 150XXX, i would expect low 20's depending on conditions as well.

just change the cluster when its time to sell, most people do that anyways.

Ive seen heaps of cars, that say they've done 60-70 but with no log books
