Pricing 4kq for sale (Andrew Buc)

[Peter Elias]

Hmm, given that, would asking $1,300 for my 1990 Audi 100 with 351,500+ 
miles on it be too much?   Excellent body panels (no dents), decent looking 
paint, very nice interior, recent tranny rebuild (about 40K miles ago), 
about $15K+ in work in the past 10 years (including AC compressor, PS pump, 
alternator, master cylinder, fuel regulator, the usual hoses, etc).

Nahh... I think I'll keep 'er!   With that many miles, may as well drive it 
into the ground!

Peter

I think I posted that I’d sold the 4kq in late August, but a few more 
comments:

Jan Pinkowish emailed me off-list suggesting that I advertise it on 
Motorgeek because people on Motorgeek sometimes want 4kq’s for engine swaps. 
I ran this idea past a friend who isn’t a lister but has owned and wrenched 
on a number of Audis, including at least 2 4kq’s. His take was that with the 
availability of A4’s, which can easily be chipped, the engine-swap scene isn’t 
what it once was.

I advertised the car on the Audifans list, the Pacific NW list, and 
Motorgeek. I got some responses from people whose names I didn’t recognize, 
so presumably they saw the Motorgeek listing. I ended up selling it to 
someone from the Pacific NW list, but the Motorgeek listing gave me some 
more irons in the fire.

I advertised the car for $500 and ended up selling it for $475. It wasn’t in 
concours shape, and at that point, my agenda was to get it off my hands.
