manta3000 Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 think u"d need to be very fanatical to pay that amount maybe not,but i find when dealers,etc get there hands on these type of cars eg,barn finds,old pops has stopped driving etc, they are putting v/high prices on them,wonder what his profit on this is nice motor,way to high a price,IMO only colin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mantasrme Posted November 10, 2012 Share Posted November 10, 2012 Well considering this same car sold in June for £560 and it doesn't look like anythings been done to it since i'd say he's trying to make a hell of a profit on it, but if its going on the auction block it will only make what someones wlling to pay for it. Oh and original advert http://www.ebay.co.u...=p2047675.l2557 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rapierdave Posted November 10, 2012 Author Share Posted November 10, 2012 Thanks for that ebay link from June. I now remember the car & thought at the time that at £560 someone had bought a potential bargain. The advert now seems to indicate that the car has no MOT or tax unless i'm reading it wrong. If there is no reserve then i can see this one being bought by a classic car dealer who thinks it's worth more than what it is. So in conclusion whats it going to make? It made only £560 in June on flea bay but i would be surprised given what recent Cav Coupes have recently fetched if this one does not make it's present owner a decent profit.

Rapierdave Posted November 29, 2012 Author Share Posted November 29, 2012 Well it didn't sell at Brooklands Historic Auctions on the 24th November so looks like the owner who bought the car for £560 in the summer might have to be more realistic to its current value. If it sold for around £1500 which i believe is probably its value then thats still a nice little profit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
