Cessna 210 Year and Model
The year and model of the Cessna 210 is used as a base to begin determining today’s value of each aircraft.

Finally, a 1985 Cessna P210R has an average retail price of $320,000.
Engine Time
Cessna 210’s come with a variety of Continental engines that have a TBO (time before overhaul) of 1,500-1,700 hours. Getting the aircrafts (SMOH) Time since major overhaul is a major factor affecting the price. If the SMOH is 1,200-1,300 hours, you may be in for an expensive ($25,000-$30,000) engine overhaul expense after only a few hundred hours of use.
Airframe Time (TTAF)
Total Airframe Time is a good indicator of how heavy the aircraft has been used during it’s lifetime. Airframes with high TTAF, 10,000 hours plus, are considered to be less valuable due to the amount of time on the aircraft. For The Cessna 210, depending on the year, it’s best to shoot for TTAF’s between 3,000-4,000 hours.
Avionics
Avionics and upgrades can significantly impact the value of a Cessna 210. Panel upgrades, GPS, Autopilot, ADS-B installation, etc can all increase the value of the Cessna 210. The best case is to obtain an equipment list or installation and upgrade history to help justify the value of the additional avionics.
Interior and Paint
Aircraft interiors are typically given a 1-10 based on a grading scale. New or mint condition interiors can increase the value of a Cessna 210 by $10,000-$15,000. Paint is also graded on a scale, new paint jobs can add $10,000-$15,000 to the value.
Prior Loss History
A lot of Cessna 210’s have had losses or been in accidents. This is due to the aircrafts age and is also a testament to the aircraft’s durability and longevity. Depending on the incident and level of damage, having loss history will typically decrease the value of the Cessna 210 by 10-20%.
