starmist Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Looking at the rust on the seat frames I would definitely want to have a good look at the condition underneath. If it goes for around the estimate though, somebody could pick up a bargain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
®evo03 Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Another nice car, magnet, torch, and large jack needed for inspection. But looks nice! Colour really highlights the shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny D114BCW Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 That seems very cheap. Have prices dropped? I have a suspicion they may have done considerably Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisb Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 I personally think that both the Exclusive coupes that have sold this week have been pretty cheap to be honest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starmist Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 It was by no means perfect though, there could have been all manner of nasty surprises hiding underneath. Makes the rough black GTE that sold for about £20k last year seem very expensive. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1200bandit Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Any car is only worth what someone is willing to pay The black GTE was well over priced ( ln my opinion) It might have been his.hers fist car so the price does not matter if only one person is ready interested they get a cheep car 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoobby Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Look at its mot history nothing before 7 July 2017 so probably been off road long term then 4 September 2019 fails for corrosion o/s/f floor pan To me looks like bare minimum was done to get it on the road in 2017 ?. Mot is due 9th September did the seller not feel confident enough to put another year on it before selling?. I personally think it's pretty bad underneath like mine was when I got it had passed with no advisorys but first mot with me long list of corrosion issues but looked stunning inside and out but underneath rot rot rot will be interesting to see it's next mot. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starmist Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Also, has anyone ever heard of this auction house? Surely it would have been better to go through a well known auction. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starmist Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Thought he meant the black gte that needed restoring and sold at auction for nearly£20k. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sutty2006 Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 You never know, they may have signed up to here for advice and gone a little shy. That’s the first thing anyone new to the manta scene would do, head for the owners club! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
