How much does a Cessna 210B cost? Used 210B prices: $79K – $140K, average $116K (median $122K); market reference $110K, across 4 priced of 5 active listings.
Key price factors: engine time to overhaul, year and airframe hours, avionics, damage history and logbook completeness — see the buying guide below for the full pre-purchase checklist.
The IO-470's lower displacement means lower overhaul cost than the IO-520 in later Centurions - a modest economy versus the higher-powered variants. Retractable gear adds hydraulic-system maintenance. As a vintage airframe, initial reconditioning costs can be significant. After reconditioning, ongoing operating costs are consistent with the IO-470 engine family.
