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 ,

If I ever own the lotto I would have a few RS500s.
