Fleabagart Posted July 13, 2009 Author Share Posted July 13, 2009 Hi, thanks for response, I have posted up 2 auctions on ebay so far but then thought I was maybe being silly to set reserve at 99p each, so I then went and edited price to £10 each starting? I expect that's way too much but I thought it worth ago. You hardly ever see these cars these days and even when I owned mine it was quite hard to source some bits. I loved mine very much, it was metallic blue ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1900SR Posted July 14, 2009 Share Posted July 14, 2009 One of the only places to get these parts new is Dr Manta, if you go to his website you'll be able to see what he charges. I did see a new top radiator hose at Billing for £12, and I paid just over £20 (inc postage)for a pair of hoses on ebay last year.it is hard to price this sort of stuff because as you say the cars are becoming scarce, which means that some parts have little or no demand, whilst others that commonly need replacing do fetch a premium. Sometimes letting the market decide the value through an auction site can be a good way, some things may go for less than you might expect, others more.
