I know of a 4x4 magenta sapp with 125k 2 previous owners just sold for £24k.

It's an odd car to value lol if someone really wants a saff then who knows if it's the car they like or has the right mods they may pay over the odds as they are desirable cars even now and have a large following. To me I can't see them being much more than 8-12 for a good usable example

They all need welding lol if it's been done right it don't matter. I bet half these never been welded 100% spot on ones would get a shock if they put a bore scope up the chassis legs or inside the sills lol. They may not look rusty yet but they rot inside out so you can't see it

these sierra cosworths we got if you look and compare them to other classcic cars pound for pound they got abs/ecu thats chipable/disc brakes front and rear/ heated front screen/ fuel injection/turbo charged/good heating system/ i can do six hours behind the wheel in mine no probs. you compare that to somthing like an old jag or a moggy on drums noisey as fuk slower than a snail you imagine doing six hours in sumut like that you need a trip to a&e to get over it. ive restored mgb gt`s for customers at garages ive worked in even there up between 10/15 k. from a proffesionals point of view i think any saff thats been extensive work man ship to a high standard rust free thats powder coated iron work i think minimum 15/17k

what happened to yours? I remember your white taxi rebuild then the blue one you had but not seen in a while what you'd done with that.

Have you zoomed in on the pictures mate, I wouldn't give that money for it.

Close up of the front wing seems to show it's been painted badly.... would need to see in person to be sure.

Side skirts fit terribly which tells me new sills, badly fitted, that car is going to have had work done...

Unless you strip everything off the chassis & get inside those sills how the hell do you know it don't need welding. Mine looked perfect before my rebuild its only seen 3 in the past dozen years on the road. However after a complete check it had 5 very small areas of rust just about caught in time. It looked spotless when up on the ramp. Forget rust free after 30 years only .01% will be that its keeping on Top of it & getting it put right correctly that matters.

Mine was the same with the inner sills when i got the outer sill cut off. How many old cars havent had welding

Do the door cards on the lux models have a gromit where the windy window handle should be? I dont think ive seen door cars with a gromit in them?

they shouldn't have them the motorsport models had them, the owner says its a top spec one which it clearly wasn't or the trims been changed which is entirly possible
