    Holden Astra 2005: What is it worth with a broken convertible roof?

    Holden Holden Advice Holden Astra Holden Astra Advice Holden Astra 2005

    My partner bought a 2005 Holden Astra convertible two years ago loved it, but about six months ago the roof for some reason gave out. It's believed after JB Hi-Fi put a new stereo in. As a result she is now very keen on selling it. The soft top doesn't open, it looks like the hydraulic hose has come off and lost its oil? And it's believed as a result the boot, which is empty, does not open. With the boot locked can we still get a roadworthy and what would you now benchmark a price at?

    I doubt that you would be given a roadworthy if you can't open the boot. It's very difficult to put a value on it, but I wouldn't pay more than $1000-$1200 given its current condition. You'd be better off getting it repaired, so the roof does work and the boot opens.
