This is RSwoza's old car, it's worth about 18k imo, not 8-9k as mentioned on here, it's totally original and very nice and rare! The 3rd lowest mileage in the RSOC!

I'll be down tomorrow with a transporter


Oh hang on, youre bullshitting


Seriously, 17k milers with pdi stickers and all original do not grow on trees

Very well restored 100k ex snotters can go for Ł6-7k after a good going over so if you think a car of that rarity and condition would be Ł8-9k you're in cloud cukoo land imo

i think it would probably fetch 12-14k to the right person, but common 30k the guy is having a laugh

So imagine this, you have Ł30K and you want a s1, 2 choices:

1) A restored S1 for Ł9K. Restored to a high standard, looks better than new however it happens to have high mileage. This leaves you with Ł21K left over to buy a garage to keep it in. Maybe a nice holiday? Also as it is already high-mileage, you wouldn't care about racking up more miles on it, would you? Allowing you to enjoy it to the full.

2) A Ł30K, low mileage S1. It will work as good as the Ł9K one mentioned earlier, but the mileage is lower. No spare money for hat holiday or a garage, but atleast you can brag about having a low mileage car. But hang on a minute, you dont want to actually DRIVE it now do you? How dare you put more miles on such a low mileage car. This means you have spent Ł30K on an ornament.

I know which one I'd go for.

Depends whether i'm a collector like Bonkers or an enthusiast doesnt it?

Both exist and cars like this DO change hands for more than the everage joe realises. Check the premium actions, speak to the registrar at rsoc, or a dealer like Paul Linfoot.

what i'd do is irrelevant, as is what you'd do

I see that car at half the money he's asking BUT I don't want it so I'm biased, there are plenty of S1 fans and he only needs to find one well healed fan and he has his money.

Totally agree Ł30k is crazy but Ł8-9 is as much of a joke. I'd say an easy Ł15k to someone into that kind of thing

You could be churlish and say how can it be valued at 20 somthing grand and have 27 grand invested then be for sale for 12.5 grand ,or its a rusty car been worked on and the car if it was any good wouldn't of needed restoring but it does look nice.
The bit i like is how long he spent painting it only to keep getting booted out the rsoc and then get fucked off and spit the dummy out. Ha Ha don't you love RSOC lads,thats not the best though,one bloke in the rsoc's Mrs divorced him as his car took over his life now thats dedication,send the old boot packing as the rusty wreck needs more cash
