Hi all
i know a guy who is selling a second hand rh side fuel tank and a tripple gauge cluster

What is the average going price for these? I dont want to over pay for them, but i do want to offer a reasonable and not sting him so i cant get extra parts later on

Basically the market value is the maximum amount anyone will pay. They aren't making genuine tanks or clusters anymore so it's a sellers market.

Agreed value is a much better concept, so talk to the seller and find out how much he wants, if the price is too high, negotiate.

If you're both happy then how can either party get stung? If you find a cheaper one later that's hard luck, if they go for way more then that's hard luck for the seller.

Right hand tanks $300 upwards, although I haven't seen one for sale for a while, 3 gauge cluster with bracket & shroud, $150 upwards.

Went past mini sport earlier and went through their store, looked at their rhs tank
pretty good quality and feels sturdy, not genuine but a real contender

I would say r/h tanks min. value 200-250
Triple clusters (assume you mean leyland/clubman). Generally $100.
