well they gone up in value over the last 10 years
i remember seeing them for sale for 2500 to 3500 quid when i was 18-19
then they went to 3500 to 4500 when i went looking for one,,, got offered a few for 3k too
now there either 3500 for a dog that needs 3k worth of freshening up or 5k for a average one
i remember when claire sold hers for 6k and thinking she would never get that and she hung on and sold it
the only thing id say about buying a cossie is hold on to the cash and watch for a nice one where the owners having a bad streek and then kick him in the balls and buy it off him for 5k if its good
i think of buying a cossie every few weeks,,,, i look for em too but theres nothing like what mine was about and to make it worse i paied 4300 for mine
