Question Will this Classic achieve its asking price?

After all the sh@t that's been said about depriciating Classic prices what do you think about this?

I could't pay ten grand for an 'old' car.

So no, i don't think it will go at that price.

I paid over the odds for my import, but I don't regret it for a second. A good car is always worth what you're prepared to pay for it, IMO.
That example looks nice and clean, hopefully someone will be very happy with it.

Well, like we all know ..... the best classics will be sought after and command a high price.

However, this one has been foooked about with so - no - £10,500 will not be achieved!

2 Owners too!!

Nah, too common!

Now, the UK Standard ONE Owner Classic really IS something to get excited about!

Pete do you by chance suffer from premature ejaculation?
If a standard uk ****box gets you that excited imagine if a good woman came your way. BY god she'd drown in 30 secs!! (if the bull**** didnt choke her first)

No chance, it's got two too many doors, it's not an RA or an STI for which you would get a superb example of both for that money

The car for sale is an Import so surely its not a turbo 2000, could be wring here.

Mileage is very low so its not asking vastly over the odd but it does depend on what the mods are.

My MY00 is mine from new and in immaculate condition with leather, aircon, sunroof, FSH, new OZ alloys, etc but with the miles I have about 60K I'd not expect more than 8K.

I think at that mileage, and if it's been serviced by date rather than miles it would be worth it to an enthusiast.

Mind you I'd rather have a mint RB5 for that money obviously

Its the milage (2000 more than mine, btw ) that makes this example valuable. There simply aren't that many left with these kind of miles on anymore. As they become rarer, they will appreciate in value.

I wouldn't be surprised if he/she got near the asking price, certainly above 9k, to be honest. As long as they don't have to sell it quickly, someone will pay a premium for an immaculate low milage classic.
