possibly £400-£700 new, cant really tell what condition it is in, doesnt look to new but not to old either. I dont even know what componenets the bike has on it, i cant see from the picture but its defintly worth less then £300 second hand. maybe worth 200 and somthing? this is a rough estimate you need to give some details about the bike. i see no colour left on the cranks so it has been riden a fair bit.

No idea about the price and year but I do see a fox rear suspension and a matinou front. Those are resonably good components if I'm not mistaken.
