He is a weasel that said he does have/has had some cracking cars prices are loopy though
sorry but anyone dealing in specialist/classiic cars....for an outlay of 6k a 2 k margin doesnt seem unreasonable to me...bear in mind this is a very specialist market...and it being an old rs and the ammount of dickheads the bloke wil have to speak to with ...i would be looking for a margin of around 6k on something like this to allow for the dick head/annoyance factor!
not to mention the time things like this will be in stock before finding a buyer!



he must have the patience of a saint


I appreciate what you are saying what with it being a specialised market, but a would you get a 6k mark up on a 26 year old standard markII escort, no you wouldnt. The guy is out of touch if someone pays that then they are a bampot. Wonder how much the s2 is?
ok donny 6k was an exaggeration i have had a few old fords rs,s and others for sale in my time and found myself tearing my hair out with the sort of clientele *cough* tossers that come to view..hence my comment...and from what you said he is down to a 1k margin on that rs2k you mentiond..which in my eyes isnt even worth handling such a car for the reasons i have stated above
