The new MK 2

[talkingcars]

It happens to a lot of cars when they reach this sort of age.

You can either price the car to sell and not get what it's worth or price the car for what it is worth and work at achieving it.

It's great that zed has found another caring home, its an excellent example in an excellent colour.
Hang out for what price you want for a while, dependant on who is looking there is nothing to say you won't get what you want for it. I certainly am not balking at the price. I got £2700 for mine as did KevG? Fair enough that was between enthusiasts/buyers thatay knew the cars but it all worked out beautifully

Think its just that our cars are now 10 years ish old.

To us, they are well worth a few thousand more but to the public at large they are just old bangers.

Not old enough to really get to the Classic Car stage yet, but give it a few more years.

Just have to look at old Mercs, Jags etc. £35 - £50 thousand pounds new, 10 year old £2-£3 thousand. Some of those look nice.

Hi Dan, they were from a guy on Ebay, he sells all sorts of Gaitors, I PM'd him and told him what I wanted and they were sent through in a couple of days. Link to him here:

Think I paid £25 for the pair, I believe I got the armrest cover from him as well but that was a couple of years ago so can't be sure.

Cheers pal - messaged him this morning and gear gaitor, handbrake gaitor and armrest cover all on it's way for £35.

Sorry for copying, but it'll all go really well hopefully with another bit of kit that's also being made as I write ...

Hi Dave, she is still SORN at the minute, still trying to sell my MK1. Plan on putting her back on the road in April and enjoying her over the Spring/Summer. Are you missing her yet??

I'll always miss her mate. But luckily I own a car that I love just as much!
