Need A Little Help - Honda Prelude BB3 - What's it worth?

Post by pxtradesales » Tue Nov 01, 2016 11:48 am

Hi

We've just taken in a 1995 Honda Prelude 2.0l.

As far as I can tell it's a 4th generation BB3 and to be fair she is in pretty good order throughout.

All barring the 3 spoke alloys I think she is totally original and we have a huge file of history that came with her. She drives beautifully and all barring a poorly matched quarter panel repair on the nearside she is pretty perfect.

I can't find any on the market so am pretty clueless as to what to ask for her so I thought I would see what you guys thought.

Below is a link so you can take a look and I would value your expertise and comments.

prices are on the way up but £500-£600 is probably about right for a quick sale- it does look as if the arches have been redone which is great but the paint match does hold it back imo. Silver is a tricky one. If it had a full respray then price would be higher.

That'd great to know ... it owes us £500.

I'll chance my arm for a bit just in case.

Thanks for your help ... and yes the paint job on the wheel arches looks pretty shocking ... it doesn't look that bad in real life... honest :)

Thanks again for your help.

Hi there, looks to have a lot going for it condition wise, even with the poorly matched paint (providing the arch repair is a proper metal repair job rather than filler). The downer on this one tbh, is that it's the 'wrong' engine - everyone wants the 2.2 vtec rather than the 2.0 non vtec. That's what holds it back in the desirability (price) stakes.
GLWTS though.
