I dont believe people put down their true RSOC valuations when they advertise for sale, I had a long chat with the registrar when my car was valued and he made it clear that no RS500 currently in the club is valued at £25k now.

My 500 has only 5k miles, completely standard even with original tires and totally mint and it isnt valued at £25k, so unless someone has a lower mileage car or something really special I would be surprised if they had a valuation much more than me.

I also find now that the people who buy these cars run in different circles to the RSOC and Passionford, I wouldnt expect to sell my car here or through the RSOC, the high value RS500 buyers now tend to fall into a similar group who run stupid old fashioned cars with wooden wheels thats the sort of people who have made offers on my car. Its actually amazing how many of these people seem to have cash to spare, I got an offer of £24k on my car but wasnt interested, next time I saw the guy he had bought an RS200 instead again it only comes out for a few shows per year.
