Thats not good saff money - as said earlier thats saff owners dreamers money.

All those saffs up at 8-10k aint selling and the owners wonder why and then blame the market its because you have priced it stupidly with your blinkers on.

i tried selling a 400bhp 3dr in 2007 with everything on including 500 parts, gauges, etc for 5500 and it didnt sell surprisingly so stripped it and got over double that back.

i bought that 3dr in 2002 fro 6100. Mint 3drs were going for 8-9k then.

i somehow doubt it - the saffs will always be the runt of the cossie litter.

3drs are still being broke too so they are still getting rarer and there was less of them sold

Are you seriously saying if you had 2 identical condition and spec cossies, both at the same money, you'd choose the saff?

I'd be all over the 3 door like a starving man on a packet of dry roasted peanuts!!

Yes 100%, its a personal taste thing. I just prefer a saph. Dont get me wrong I still like a 3 door and its the original cosworth etc etc but I just prefer a saph.

Hmm ok might be suspect but if it's got lots if traceable history could well be a genuine car which genuinely has a missing plate from a respray etc etc.. although does warrant some caution I do agree!

thats funny as a sold my saff for 8k within a few days of being for sale , also know of one that have changed hands for nearer the 10k mark

decent saff are selling for that , pitty everybody now values all the piles of shit at that price thats where your getting confused that they aint selling

3 doors were coming in to good money there but not what some seem to think there worth lol
