What is a pristine MV3 worth?

What is a pristine 18" MV3 wheel worth?

I have a 8.5J wheel with a small hairline crack in it and wonder if it is worth the expense (£80) of getting it repaired and refurbished by the likes of Lepsons or whether to sell it on as it is.

What's the consensus?

After wrecking 2 wheels a couple of months ago I had to buy 1 front and 1 rear from BMW and the cost was and eye watering £800 ish for the 2, so I'm sure any presentable MV3 has a value to someone, even if only as a spare

True, uncracked ones normally go for about £100 - £150 odd on ebay. People buy individual wheels because of the above story.

If you get it repaired it won't be pristine. According to the above, a pristine wheel might cost me 125 so I personally wouldn't pay 80 for a damaged, repaired, refurbished one. So I'd say sell as is.
