32k on pistonheads is the cheapest ive seen for a bit and the car has been for sale a while now?

anyone seen cheaper ,i know most of them are dearer lol

 

The one you've mentioned mate

 

thought so pete


looks a nice car all the same

 

Hmmmmmm would I be right in thinking your after a 500 now James LOL.

 

That has been for sale around 18 months now.I have seen a few nice 500's in the early 30s but they don't hang around long.

 

i was thinking of maybe selling the 2 3doors and get a 500 if the budget would stretch

the only problem is one of them is in boxes ,and i dont have a great record in bolting stuff back together rich

 

If that well priced at 32k, why has it not sold?

saw a lovely one for 45k though the other day KGB Classics think it was, on ebay

 

yes i thought that mate its being up and down in price quite a bit aswell .

 

strange one less ,as they have being going up and this one has come down in price

yeah i seen that mate ,its a nice car

 

2 3 Doors?? Would that be the white d plate and the track car mate??

 

27k on a forecourt near me it was a black high miler, looked clean but didn't stay there long

 

I would love your white 3/dr James just because of the last two letter of the plate

 

Back in 2012 seen a few from around Ł18k but 2013 they have rocketed and doesn't seem to be that many for sale as their being snapped up by collectors. Sadly think their now out of touch for most of us, I planned to get one by the time I was 30, no chance now!

 

rich 34k moonie and the 39k white one .


im keeping the track car lol

 

good price on that one ginge


why less ?

 

i think you are probably right on this lee ,they are out of range now .but i think the market is steadying the past few months

i want one by the time im 50

 

I know some one who payed 11k for one a few months back as a non runner

 

They are all cheap. They will all end up in Ireland eventually.

 

,he got a bargain their mate.


a non runner would suit me as i never drive them anyways

 

i dont follow mate

 

I'm trying to make a joke whilst on the beer. Sorry.
I'm 2nd generation, and my folks are from the midlands. There is a lot of money over there.
I meant no harm.

 

no offence taken atall mate,lol

and their is no money left over here ,zee germans took it all

 

It's one thing buying one but if you intend to use and improve one be prepared to spend some big money.The cost of these cars and parts is taking part of the fun out of owning them.

 

sold my 3dr wheels to a guy that had an rs500 at the capri club show on sunday just passed.

He told me what he bought his rs500 for 6 years ago...and I near collapsed!! LOL

 

Thanks.
Zee Germans?
So long as they don't go checking what's in the credit union. Or worse, what's under the floor boards.

 

i think the only way to buy is complete spot ,unless your a friend of paul linfoot as he has alll the spares bought already lol



go on john spill the beans

 

I first looked for one around 10 years ago and went to see a low miles one 10 miles from my house for Ł14k.I still kick myself for not buying it now paid nearly double the price with 4 times the miles 18 months ago

 

The low end of 4 figures for f*** sake!!!

and the thing is a real good one too!! doesn't get tarted up and trailer queened about. just a real superb honest driven to shows car!! and fair play to the fella!!

 

hindsight,if we all knew then what we know now we would all be loaded spot.

do you mean he drives it john


sounds like he got a bloody bargain mate

 

Could have had a reshelled but complete one 6 years back for Ł5.5k, and 4 years ago a tidy one for Ł11k, can't believe I didn't buy them, both well known cars now.😂

 

lee ,you werent thinking straight surely lol

 

You got to use them,if i don't get out at least twice a week there is something wrong. Mondays outing

 

thats a stunner mate

 

Cheers

 

I kept hanging back and convincing myself they would not rise any more, ended up paying double what I had originally planned to spend, but its now probably doubled again.

Cheap ones are cheap for a reason. Paul and Daz are always the best port of call to find out that reason.

James I would stick with your cracking 3drs, its the look of the 500 I love and you always have that update option on a 3dr

 

James,tell me about it i think about it all the time,if only i knew then.
Spot,that looks wicked,cant beat a standard black 500.

 

i dont think i would ever conside3r one without taking proper advice on one from the likes of yourself paul and daz

i do love the look of them mate ,but its the full package i would be after including the heritage that comes with the brand

i was chatting to my mate last week about it and he reckoned sell the two and get a 500 .unless of course your up for a swap on your old nail paul lol

 

we have all done it lee ,but it wont happen again

 

still bargains to be had few and far between granted , values are rising still , i bought a non runner after selling 003 , once running it will stand me at sensible money .. yet another unknown car popped up tonight and maybe for sale soon , keep the faith guys .

 

Most rs500s are being sold under the radar now and never get advertised

I had 2 calls only yesterday from people wanting high value rs500s for there collections

I am sad to say that this alone is pushing up prices as collectors are willing to pay big money to own the cars

The 2 nice rs500s for sale on pistonheads at the mo , one at 40k and one at 44k are both my old cars that i had to sell to buy my new house only 4 months ago
Both great cars and would make any owner proud

The problems are that your average man cant understand 40k plus for an old sierra and oftern rant and rave that there overpriced and not worth it , this is exactly the oposite opinion of the serious car collector and hence why most dont get advertised as collectors like buying behind the scenes and they like cars that arnt advertised

There are a lot of dealers jumping on the band wagon now buying and selling rs500s for big bucks ,
