I'd say that it's worth around £700, maybe less...it's an unfortunate reality, but modifications rarely add significantly to the value of a car.
Selling the wheels, seats and springs separately would fetch a reasonable amount, then punt the car on as a useful runabout for someone.

My colleague (Jabbo on here) sold his Polo Koop for about £750. It didn't have such rare wheels on, but was an absolute minter.
HTH.

I like long walks, especially when they're taken by people I don't like.

Will that be in the front or the back. Just as hard as each other really!
750 would be a decent price in my eyes. But I'd be looking to break it for parts as, but its not always that easy - especially if youve binned standard seats and the like.

flog wheels, flog or bin seats.
standard interior in and i think you'd still struggle to get £500.
IMHO i'd prefer to buy a similar car in standard form, those mods put me off.

I'm not really a fan of Polos but... If it's as clean as the picture shows (and has what you claim), 91000 miles at nearly 20 year is good going and if it does have full service history from new then I reckon you would get... ... around a grand/£1000, but ... ... I emphasize about condition (I would also expect to see a very presentable/clean engine compartment). I do feel though that rear seat would need to be installed to help it sell. If you only get offered £500 to £750 (and it is as good as you claim) then stick with it ...Thats what I do!

Ok well thanks you, i don't want to put the rear seats back to be honest, I'm want to sell her as a (rally slag) style car as that was what i was getting her to look like.
Well seeing as i wont get that much for her, i don't know if i will be selling!

my friends just sold a completely standard 71k polo GT breadvan, for £300 on ebay, and that was like getting blood out of a stone. i doubt your polo would be worth more than that minus the seats and wheels, maybe £200ish methinks. seats £50-100, wheels £who knows. i cant see it being anything more than £500 as it stands, if your lucky.
polos are cheap, facelift mk3's can be gotten for £5-600or so.
your best bets to have a look on ebay for the 'going rate' of any car.
