Surely has to be owned by somebody who has no clue what its worth or its a scam.

If it's somebody stupid then it could be a bargain or an easy way to make some quick cash, buy it for £800, sell it for a lot more!
I remember a few years ago there was an advert on eBay for a mk2 Golf GTI, oak green and perfect spec with very low miles. The owner had died and the old dear couldn't bring herself to sell it but eventually put it up for sale for something silly like £1000 as it's just an old Golf. Luckily some kind people sent her messages telling her it was worth much more but I don't know what she eventually sold it for.

My mate rang earlier basically told him it was sold before he could utter a word. somebody got a bargain.

Not a shocker. That was obscenely cheap!

Apparently it sold for 2k, so i think somebody informed them it was worth a bit more.

I called at 12 and it had sold. Even rotten its still worth double that. Had one years ago and loved it. Probably for the best that I didn't get to buy it.

I prefer the white BX estate further up the page, but I can see the appeal to patriotic old folk of an end of production run Montego in a suitably British colour.

Not sure about the use of the phrase "barn find" in that advert (has to be the most common classic car spam phrase, along with "future classic" or "getting rare now"). But £800 sounds like good value for a rare-ish modern car with reasonable miles and only 1 family owner.

£2k

I tried to buy this but it sold today to someone else. I do have a 304s but it needs full restoration so it would have been nice to have one ready to use for this summer.

Me too, gutted. I'd have loved to have pottered around in this for a bit. Oh well.

Yeah I recognised his digital persona - top shedding, although it can hardly be called a shed when it's a W126! Very imo.
