Trooker Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 (edited) I should have said, I couldn’t easily find what ( or if) it sold for here https://wbandsons.com/listing/opel-manta-gte/ There’s a few threads about one https://mantaclub.org/forums/topic/52071-manta-gte-hatch-on-the-dealer-merry-go-round/ Edited May 4, 2022 by Trooker Additional info Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexb Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Is that a good price with the mileage and the odd thing i can see from the pics like the rear bumper and cracked parcel shelf.?. Im looking for a Manta but not sure if thats a good price or not even though it is a GTE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sutty2006 Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 Prices definitely have a wide spread value at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny D114BCW Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 I can’t believe a daily hack I built on a shoestring budget, on a back street with a £500 blow over (the wrong colour - not my doing) and welding done to make it last but not concourse is making this money. 😂 And that was the back bumper as GTE bumpers on a hatch look horrid. 0FC28F4D-B5F3-465C-A3B9-A6F01CC30AB1.MOV 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having seen the efforts that were gone to trying to mend that running problem im betting nobody else has fixed it while its been on its crazy adventure through the trade speculation price bubble its riding in 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRealExile Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Which tells a tale for sure, fingers crossed for whoever drives it back from the auction 😬😬😬 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starmist Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 As long as it looks nice, which this one does, then it will sell as that is all alot of people will be looking for and they will assume that it drives well too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evo3000 Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 For the sake of the new owner i just hope that running issue has finally been put to bed.🤔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
391JON Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 I owned this, put a new ECU and ecu loom on it and it ran fine. It will be on bangers and cash series 6, you can see how well it runs there they filmed me for a day which will probably boil down to 2 mins air time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the running problem has indeed been fixed, no reason not to it was a pretty good car. You would have to be very certain of that though Also its never worth £15k the last price it was advertised at. £8995 is that cars money 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
