Yeah that's near me. A little bit pricey though! Did they even cost that new?!Originally Posted by paulmannion
Looks like it has had work to the rear arches as well.
Very expensive for the seller, hence the high asking price. I spoke to them about selling my SC, they suggested putting it up for £10-12k, but their minimum commission is around £4,000, plus you have to pay an upfront preparation cost of around £500. The seller of this Mk1 might net £5,000 assuming it goes for near asking price.
Blue interior
Would have cost £12,250 new. Not sure what that is in today's money.
I was preparing to tear this apart just for the nerve of asking 10k but if you look closely there's a bit more to worry about than that.
Obvious things to note, some pretty obvious rust on the bolts by the wiper arm, engine and boot lid hinges, exhaust silencer is also rusting quiet nicely, sideskirt rubber seals have been poorly fitted at the front joins, nearside sidelight cluster is squiff and the bonnet shut lines are shocking. Also to nit pic (and for 10k I bloody well would be) the engine is clean to an extent but simple things like polishing the cam covers and replacing rusty clips really annoy me. For even half that money it wouldn't take me long to walk away.
They will be staring at that for a long time, unless of course they find a rich, slightly dim, mr2 enthusiast who happens to want a white sunroof model with a blue interior.
While it's very nice surely it can't be worth more than £4,000 max? IMHO
I'd personally probably only be willing to pay £3,000 for it tops.
What's wrong with a blue interior! I've got blue...
It's blue
Blue interior is ming mong.
