Default Any love for 22Bs?

Hi All,
Long time lurker, joined a few years ago, but been posting mainly on 22b.com and rexnet, which now seems dead.

I sold my 22B, which I'd owned for 7 years, back in November. I bought #301 here in the uk back in 2007, and then shipped her to Australia, where she was sold.

Even though I did exactly what I planned, and then moved back to the UK, something weird has happened. I miss the car.

So, the reason for my post; does anyone know of a 22B thats for sale? Any owners here interested in selling?

Thx,
Rob

Are you aware of how much they go for now? May make you cry.... Every now and again people post up adds on here when they find them. But be prepared to pay a lot of money. If it were me I would get a R or P1 and have a wide arch kit put on it and have essentially the same looks and performance for less then half the money. But if you can afford it why not

Lol, may have misread it on my phone and thought I saw that he had sold seven years ago!

Prices have rocketed massively the past year. Some people are chancing their arms at £40k+ which is completely unrealistic. But then if they get a cheeky offer of £32k ish then I think they've had a result.

I didn't advertise mine, I replied to a thread on 22B forum with someone who had cash in their pocket and a week later I sold it. Turns out what I bought to replace it with isn't too shabby. ��

May be a little more as it does look very clean underneath.

But I just could never justify spending that much more over a type r.

It would cost you a fair bit to rectify that hideous interior.

Hi Guys,
Yes, I've seen that one, and am not interested in it.

For what its worth, I think that just because one "seller" has a car up with moon miles on it at a high asking price, this has no bearing on the overall market. Its an asking price after all. Whats more interesting to me is selling prices.

In any case, I know what I sold mine for very recently, and am looking to replace it for a similar amount, and with similar mileage. If I can get a better price and / or milage, then I'll consider myself lucky.

Thx,
Rob
