Old Honda Civic valuation (v. low mileage)
Hey all,
Need a bit of assistance valuing an old Honda Civic I've inherited from my late mother. It's a '96 4dr sedan. I'm not sure as to the model - the registration says "UXX" (which doesn't mean much), but it seems to be an LX without power windows or central locking (it does have power/adjustable steering). However, the interesting thing about it is that it only has ~ 52k kms on it, and is in excellent shape (no rust, dings, etc) as my mother barely drove it. The only "issue" with it is that it's been sitting in a garage for the past 6 years - so the battery is likely dead, and the tires are flat (and it's dusty!). My mother was a non-smoker and kept the car very clean.
I'm having trouble valuing it due to the low mileage. Every time someone comes over and sees it sitting in my garage I get a "call me if you want to sell it"!
VMRCanada says it's worth $3125 in "excellent" shape, but given the mileage, what would be a fair value for a private sale?
