ask brian mclain he’s got 2 actually i know the malc and he own XX893 i think
the last one was on E-bay last year
Don’t ask Brian, he paid over the odds for both of his, and subsequently inflated the Bucc’s prices!!! Malc got his for an exchange of parts, so no money changed hands.

Depends on many aspects, general external condition, how big it is, cockpit fit, any additional extras (ie – Trailer, nose cone, engine intakes etc).
Those in a very poor condition are worth £500 – £1000.
Those in excellent condition and are fully kitted out, are worth £6K – £8K.
Bear in mind, that the last complete aircraft that came up for disposal, XV863, only sold for £5500, and this was in good condition and could be restored to ground run, it also had some historical value for being the last Bucc to be launched from Ark Royal.
