In your opinion what is this van worth?

Just trying to determine an acceptable price. Thanks

Good looking Van from the Pics, But not a lot to the conversion. For essencially the same price, I still like this one (2006, Leather, V-10, 82,500K miles)

That’s a nice older van. Mileage is low for the age as well they are close to the value based on the home build transformer set up & all the goodies. I’d offer 22-24k but really it’s worth what someone will pay & in Seattle... plus #vanlife crazy. I’ll rekon there’s more than a few who thinks it’s worth 26K if you serious make an offer all they can do is say no & counter.

From the pictures in his photo album it appears to be his van.

Didn’t realize that... but I think what I said holds true. 26k is a good starting point... & they can entertain offers. I personally think spring is the best time to sell even in the #vanlife crazy, winter not so much... especially now thru the first of the year.

Yeah, not ideal time to sell, but that price is in the ballpark imho.

Agreed. Love that black Reunel setup BTW. Why the added hoops on the front?

[Ateam]

Hoops are stainless steel and came from Reunel that way. The bars had been covered in a clear rubber protection but removed because of discoloration. I guess Reunel's idea of push bars.

You could likely get a bit more for it even, it'll just take longer to move, possibly into next spring.

The detractors will be the age/mileage (which are in-line for each other), and the fact that it's not one of the most desirable engines. That said, there's nothing wrong with that engine either, and it'll likely be a good van for whoever buys it.

For me, I wouldn't buy a Quigley or an RB, but I think the average buyer would make the opposite choice on both.

I like how both the interior and the bumpers / roof rack are set up a lot.

It might sell faster if you put some rough numbers next to what the pieces were new. This clearly isn't a case where someone is trying to make back their "investment", but I have a rough idea of what went into this, and it's way more than the asking. Having numbers next to them would help someone choose this over a van that's missing one or two of the customizations.
