Monaco Blue Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Unbelievable! Maybe he reckons if it's advertised at £21K, someone might offer him £15K. Deal done! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rapierdave Posted October 19, 2019 Share Posted October 19, 2019 Same dealer that bought it originally for around £13500. Moral of the story, do your research on potential final selling values before you bid to buy a Manta. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moral of the story, do your research on potential final selling values before you bid to buy a Manta. Spot-on Dave. If it were a GTE it would possibly sell at circa £15K given the condition and mileage, but a GT or Berlinetta is a much harder sell. Witness the Anthracite Berlinetta now for sale again at £13500 or whatever. That's dropped £6K from when it was last up for sale. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
®evo03 Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 GT or berlinetta + xe = better than a gte, on more than likely wont have a sunroof, recaro seats are an easy swap! Now try finding a gte tank! But to be quite honest a 1.8 is no slouch, even to todays standards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
