Don't think you can compare your Bugeye with that Spec C.

Really im not saying my car is the same as a spec c, i just don't feel its worth the money, im sorry i don't feel the same as a few others on this forum but it is a forum and everyone has a right to there own thoughts on things.

I thought personally it was worth close to what they were asking. Special car with choice mods and unique colour.

Std Hawkeye Spec C's have last month sold for between £17k to £19k.
So if that one sold for most probably £19.5k, thats is a bargain considering the spec on it. £11k on mods is probably correct considering Powerstation 400bhp upgrade(inc engine strengthening & turbo upgrade etc); AST Type 4 remote; Porsche/AP BBK; Miltek system; 18" wheels etc etc.

In 2007 I tried to sell my Spec C - advertised in various places - very low mileage, AP 6 pots, and the very best solid offer I got was £18k. This was a Litchfield MY06 55 reg. In 2008 I pretty much decided to keep it, advertised it once at £16,995, I did not get a single sign of interest in a month. That was nearly a year ago when the market was much stronger than it is now.
If there are standard Spec Cs of this age (2.5-3.0 years old) actually selling for £17-19k then my hat and mouth are going to be in close contact!!
There have been two Spec Cs sold in the last month on the wrong side of £15k (as in sold, not advertised). However this is still a 50% residual in three years so pretty good.
On this basis, £19k is a strong price. IMHO is not often that modifications add anything like their retail value to a car - they may help a car move in the current flat market.
Still, it is a lovely car irrespective of what we think of the value.
