Loose Cannon Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 Had some good news for newer cars today. A friend with a mint GT3 has been offered £20k by a dealer and £22k privately without advertising. This backs up 2 low mileage red GT3s that have sold recently for over £20k and Paul Mattys ultra low mile green one currently on offer for £24k Quote In the garage no-one can hear you scream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nello Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 Good to see a nice G Turbo HC going for decent money: http://www.gilescooperautomotive.co.uk/lotus-esprit-turbo-hc-2.2-a-c-in-colchester-essex-4875352 Cliff - that one must have been just a bit further down the track from ours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swindon_alan Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 Rendering? I can show you the real thing. DSC_9512.JPG Yuk. Very, very agree. Bibs, can we have a "Don't Like This" button on the forum please? Nice Silver v8 at reasonable money,wish i could have 2 Esprits !! http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&id=161808661604&alt=web Yes, very nice - not too keen on the red interior though. I'm not sure that it goes with silver but that's just me being picky. It's interesting about V8 prices, they seem to have a fairly wide range, from about £23k (what I paid back in January) up to £28/29k.

The Pits Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 This really is the end of the madness then!£1m?!? Who came up with that asking price, Dr Evil?!The 360 Stradale is just rubbish compared to the 430 Scuderia which in turn is massively surpassed by the Speciale. 355 is much prettier than the 360 and sounds much better too. Seriously don't get that at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bibs Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 A pal (and ex TLFer) has a 360 CS and a 430 Scud and while pretty cars (esp the Tour De France Blue Scud), they're never £1m's worth of car by a long shot!

The Pits Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 That 360CS price is a massive mis-print by the way. Top dollar for one is (a still ludicrous) £140k or thereabouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GTK Posted September 15, 2015 Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 I'm in. Mine can go up as "original, for restoration". What do you think, €85k too much? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post LotuStuart Posted September 15, 2015 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 15, 2015 You've got a point here. Let's take the late v8's. (No personal interest.... ) 1 There's a limited supply. 2 the majority of owners are on TLF (?) 3 if we all agree not to advertise below £45k, that will become the de facto price. If you want a v8, the only supply is priced at a minimum of £45k. Then we can all sell up. The market will crash and we can buy them back at rock bottom prices! What could possibly go wrong... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
