Seriously Overpriced Cars

[sim16v]

Have we had this sheep in wolf's clothing yet?

Probably slower than a standard 220 due to the AMG additions, and at least £20k over priced?

A bargain at £24995

Stop the world, I want to get off.

by far the worst, even worse than the 30k river by the Perodua garage!!
That's barely worth £3.50!! It's a goner!

Don't complain, they've knocked £500 off from when it first appeared!

That £500 should get you a pretty decent vacuum cleaner with which to hoover up what's left of the bodywork, making it easier to get it back to the buyer's workshop.

Not really 'seriously' overpriced, but overpriced all the same:

Rover 75 diesel tourer - £4990

Rover 75 2.5 V6 tourer (minus pictures) - £10995

How about a £86k Escort Cosworth? -

2k miles and what looks like a factory fresh "Cossie" must surely be worth really strong money though. Not sure about £85k but it is a sought after car and this one is a collectors item for sure. Can only be a handful of these with such low miles and in almost as new condition.

As with all of these, the Delta's included, its worth what someone is willing to pay. Is there someone out there willing to splash big money on a car they dreamed about owning as a kid. Quite possibly, but not for me, not even with a lottery win!

That 325i ad is nuts. "They've unblocked the washer jet, so it's definitely worth £25k now" said no one, ever.

Lovely car, but that's got to be at least twice its money.

I have a very large amount of want for that. But not at £19k! As said, even a good one is £10k.

This is just around the corner from my GFs flat - I've noticed it because its a cool motor but I've never thought it was in great condition

About 10 years ago I went to look at a "fresh MOT" Mk2 GTI 16v.... scrap.
No water in the engine the expansion tank was dusty
Discs thickly corroded - how it past it's not the day before is highly questionable.
Starting up dead flat battery. He got a fresh one started it up noticed exhaust blow got out and saw the entire rear box was hanging offf
I tried to pull away in it in the forecourt but the breaks had seized on.

I let him carry on with the sales pitch as it was beyond a farce. My annoyance being my wasted time and fuel.

Alongside the 47,000 miles E30 325 sport for £24,000, that AMG almost looks decent value!

I saw some real dogs before I bought my 5 door 8v about 10 years ago even though you could pick up a decent one for less than a grand.
Some real dreamers trying to take advantage of the 'scene'.

Paid a bit more than I wanted for mine but it was original, had FDSH and had been owned by an old boy for the previous 10 years.
He had bought a MK4 GTI to replace it :-/

One of those cars I wish I had kept even to just dry store together with the 1275GT and E36 318is I got rid of both for peanuts.
