Value of cars!!

Postby The Saint » Mon Dec 14, 2015 7:07 am

Seen this on FleaBay... Its unreal. Would you pay that much for it? Christ it needs every panel replacing, and they are expecting to get that much!!! :crazy :crazy

I still cannot believe that Alpines are not getting a better price, when you see rusty old Fords getting this kind of price.

:hang

I think I will start a rusty Ford collection!! plenty to choose from. Shame I never held on to those old 1600E's and 3Ltr Capri's I once had.

Its a strange world we live in.....

They can ask £2k for a rusty Mk3 Cortina it but did they get it?

The paint shop, where my A610 is, have had quite a few old Fords in for work and most have paid, what seems to me, stupid money compared to what Alpines are going for... so yea maybe they did get that price??

I know some Fords do get amazing money (2 door escorts in particular) but the Mk 3 Cortina doesn't have much of a following. Unless that's very solid underneath then I can't see that reaching more than £1k (probably closer to £500). There are some really stupid people around that may pay more because they buy on impulse or haven't looked/researched properly, and no one can allow for them.

Yes A310s/GTA/A610s are undervalued.
