Price Guides don't mean a thing. If you try to sell it, then you will find out what it's worth. If you want to know the value right now, put it on evilbay with a super high reserve and see where it goes. I realize that's not 100% accurate, but it will give you a rough idea.

Hello,

Okay, thanks Guy's, I not asked this to sale My bird, ohhhhhhh NO, I never sold this car, But at the near of his 25years I was just curious.

I renewed the licences of the bird last month, after sitting a bit outside since March (no snoe, ect) and i was really surprised when I drived, no issues ( the car is saturated of oil ) ans drive exceptionally well.

Is different of My 3 little Suzuki swift 1991, except for the fuel consumption, Bird=33mpg highway, Suzuki's 3 banger near 60mpg.

This winter I'll enter the Bird in My garage with two of my Suzuli's (ragtop and the turbo one), and take care of all of these, especially My lovely Bird...

Roundly this car cost to Me around 10-12.000 CDN$, but it's perfect and not for sale :)

Thanks Guy's,

Have a nice Day,

Dom.
