He's deluded.

And it's certainly not the best in the country either.

Yep, did have to laugh when he said £16k let along seeing it there for £20k lol alloys ruin the looks of the car imo...... but im sure if youve got £20k to spend on a saph a decent set of comps on it will jsut be loose change!

As others have said, far from standard
Standard cars are the ones that go for the money
May be worth 8k - 10k at the most.

Now I love rouse saffs, always had a huge soft spot for them, but if I had £20k to spend, I'd buy a 3dr and a Saff

in all fairness, if i had 20k to spend i would buy the best rouse over a 3dr, sorry!

but not with those shitty wheels lol

i could have bought a Rouse or a 3dr or a 500 from JCT28 many years ago, the rough RS500 was the same price and i bought a white 304-R, but it was "set on fire" before i collected it the next weekend
nice place JCT28

I'm actually thinking the price isn't too mental, looking at the spec it has had a fortune spent on it...

2.3 engine? Does that turbo look like a T4?

Bare shell respray

Nice set of AP's

I'd say IF you were in the market for a really really nice saff, that would be a good car to look at, the std gearbox would be a concern, the wheels are horrid but an easy job to swap...

Prob worth 15k IMHO if it is as nice as he recons it is..

Sure its got some nice bits on it and has recently had good work done to it but that price is from cookoo land, and it looks sh1t with those stupid headlamps and wheels.

Give me a mint standard 4x4 spahire with some choice but understated upgrades any day (will be sub £8k in total).

Me neither mate, and those wheels!!!

The only way that would be worth 20k would be if there was 10k cash in the boot lol

It's been modified so much it is no longer a Rouse as far as I'm concerned. My old Rouse 304-R build 13 is for sale and still looks a belter. The seller wants 9k, far more realistic.


Quick Reply: £20k For A Rouse 304R ??
