Prices were at that level a few years ago and might be a bit high now.
Depends on history of the car, condition and warranty etc.
I'd be looking for 12 months warranty.
Always worth going for a look and test drive..

Hello there me old buddy yeh I'm still breathing and now driving an X1 old mans truck :driving: Yes that Roadster is still showing when I've looked on Autotrader. It's listed at £11K and comes with the hard top. I've also fancied a Zed 4M. I'm dreaming probably Moz.
Hope your both keeping well, what are you driving these days?

So, what would you say is a more realistic figure given that it’s a very rare car (to come up for sale now) and with only 34k miles on the clock?

(I haven’t been on here for some years but considering selling mine - thanks)

It's not the price per-se. It's the concept of 'offers over' in an advert.

I get that it's a nice car & has some value.

Oh, I get it now….and agree how that makes it sound like a house sale.

Initially, I thought it was the price you were having an issue with and thought to myself: “Well, my best friend has just bought a Ferrari 296….for about 296 £ Thousand, coincidentally….and that’s not a house either.” And, I think his price is actually quite realistic.

But, now I understand what you meant. I agree, it’s always a slightly odd way of advertising a car. It really means: he wants “no lower than £25K for it”. So, why not just advertise it such by saying “£25k firm”?


That said, many, many years ago, a friend of my mine accompanied his then girlfriend, was interested in buying a certain Morris Minor. When it came to the negotiations and the owner was asked how much he wanted for it? He replied: “Offers around 500-quid.”

To which she replied: “Ok, is £600 any good?

So, you never know! :rofl: :rofl:

Put mine up for sale on Mobile.de last night and wondered why I had such a phenomenal number of ‘Hits’ so quickly….over 200 in less than 24 hours!

I put it for the same equivalent price in Euros as it is in £….so, 27500€.

Then this evening my German girlfriend me these two:

The first with higher mileage than mine:

The second, in the Netherlands, with lower mileage than mine:

https://suchen.mobile.de/fahrzeuge/deta ... DES&vc=Car

:o :o :o

Needless to say, the words “thoughts” and “second”, not necessarily in that order are presenting themselves to the fore in my consciousness.
