Before anyone starts this is not a for sale post it's more of a how much to pay post.
It's a bit of a weird one...
Moonstone RS500 which was damaged in 1992 and was reshelled with a brand new shell and converted to 4x4 at the same time. Thing is when it was converted to 4x4 all the 2wd RS500 parts were replaced with 4x4 Cosworth bits, even the intercooler, plenum etc
Outwardly the car looks like a very clean 500 with genuine front bumper and rear spoilers, the body is dent free and the paint is good the RS500 splitter is missing off the front bumper.
Interior trim is near mint, dash is not cracked no cig burns.
Engine has recently been built and balanced with forged cosworth 7.2:1 pistons and a mildly ported head injectors are grey it's still on a T3 turbo.
All running gear and brakes are standard 4x4.
It's had 3 owners.. the dealer, the first keeper and my mate and has done a genuine 77k.
The car drives like a new one and memories of my old 4x4 3dr are making me want to buy it.
See what i mean about being a weird one!
Price guide please.....

It is a really strange one right enough! I would put it around the £10k mark as mentioned it has lost its identity a bit with the engine being removed! it is still a 500 though so hard to say!

The car sounds a bit of a mishmash but in reality it's an exceptionally nice thing.

Kev...thats all its worth mate.....its got NOTHING goin for it...ok i payed way over for a Saff but it has all the right parts and in bits it would make a profit...this 3dr would be a loser at over 6k..and thats reality.

It must be valued as a bad 500 though and not a good 3 door! I think average 500's are £14k so must be worth around the £10k mark.
Nae sure when I will get down to you Kev will call tomorrow again mate!

i would say no more than 4k tbh, i would have to agree with phil, just what has it got going for it, its now neither the original 3dr, or the 4wd sierra ?
all its really worth it what you would get in bits, value it as what you would want it for martin, its not an investment at all, if its just fr a laugh, then to get rid, its still 4k.

im still sticking to what i said, thr id isnt really worth that much doug, would you buy just an id for a std 3dr to make in a 500 ? you would be found out faster than spadge with a replica - worth no more than a std 3dr, if its a oe factory shell, all complete oe, then worth a good investment

i,m actually confused as to why you would want it anyway martin for anything other than a breaker..it will be so slow you would be in danger of falling asleep at the wheel
like me with my 3door..was just about to break it as i had customers for the first lot of parts.... then it got a repreive at the last minute....i,m just going to stick it away as a nostalgia thing.... cant see me really wanting to drive it much lost my interest in cossies now...its only done 150 miles since 2001

If his price is above what you are prepared to pay, then clearly, you need to get him drunk and do a deal then, or let it go by.
Reading the previous posts, it sounds to me as though it's a case of what you are prepared to pay for it, such wild differences in prices 3K to 10K suggest it doesn't really have a price imo.
