If you don't ever drive it then any car with silly low miles will eventually go up in value once it becomes old, rare and collectable. A mint mk1 fiesta or escort or even a nova will command a premium as inflation takes hold and money is worth less.

Assuming it's as good as he seller says it is, that's 4.2k (or possibly less, Witt some haggle) for a 2005 car, with 67k and some interesting bits.

Sold already. The cars we have with 48K are easily worth 7.5K to anyone who wants one - all day long.

I'm amazed.

Really, I am.

Who the %£&) pays anywhere near that for an EP3?!

Honestly I'm actually LOL'ing at this but I'm gonna gracefully bow out of the price discussion coz clearly I'm wrong and there actually *are* folk daft enough to pay upwards of £7k for a bog standard UK EP3.

I have the agree Jimi, I'm a Honda fan through and through but £10k for an EP3 is a lot of money. Even £7-7.5k seems a lot, but there must be people out there willing to pay top money for the right car, but the same goes for any marque I think!

If someone has what they think is a mint car and they ask top money for it, there may be someone out there to buy it, it just depends on who and finding them!!

All day long to very very few buyers maybe. £7.5k is dreaming.

I think anyone with a low miles car that ISN'T cosmic grey will be able to demand extra given nobody seems to be keeping those! spinlaugh

Yeah right hehe

I sold this CG Premier last year for £3750 to a trader, I think he sold it for £5k.

Just to bump an old thread. I've just picked up an 06 plate Premier in CG, just over 100k on the clock. Loving it so far.

Enjoy! Is it a standard car, any plans for additions? Some nice subtle modifications you can do without it looking any different to standard.

Not too sure, I'm in the bad books with the Mrs as it isn't deemed to be a suitable family vehicle. May not be keeping it too long (the car, not the Mrs).

I'm still looking for one after losing out on the car I was talking about in my OP.

Ergo, if anyone's selling one, email me biggrin
