I must admit i have been looking at the Sag for a while, i am now convinced that they have topped out on the prices as nobody seems to be able to sell them, i do believe that next year they will be where they belong in the 38-42 grand bracket.....

1 post in five years and that was it. Wowzers, will I be able to get a CSL for 15K and a Challenge Stradale for 60K as well?

Don't think I have seen abusive posts with ref to Sag prices even though threads on Sag prices seem to crop up every week, often by people looking to buy Sags,

With ref to abusive mails Tovie you should report to PH towers,


As blackiepaul says CSL and Stradale prices are also doing very well, just wish I had bought a 997 4.0RS when they were £130k, now at £350k and still going up.

It happens from time to time, mainly private without the dealer hike! Bottomline, if you can afford one then but one, if you can't don't, the ultimate TVR is in the eye of the beholder, but the best TVR is a driven one smile A wedge to a Sag, if the only story you can tell is how the garage lights glisten off the paintwork then :/

Well that's odd, Neil's sass berry Sag sold for £67k in April time, So some of them are selling and some are still moving up in value.

My 06 car is in very good condition and with a 4.3 str8 six engine in this year, wouldn't be letting it go for any less than 6*k... If I were selling.

I don't see an issue with a few cars not shifting affecting values, they won't ever drop now though... Supply/demand yada yadda, no more than 100 cars left in UK, I'm just delighted I got a great example when I did.

Sags are amazing cars I loved mine.. However the £60k plus market is very competitive. 997 gt3's are rocketing in price as well but they are also selling very quickly rather than hanging around for months/ years like the sags are... The £50k +TVR market is limited whereas the 50k Porsche / Aston market ain't!! I don't necessarily agree with this but the sales figures don't lie.. Check out the Porsche classifieds.

At 60k your in your way to an R8 v10 I love tvrs, but I think this is the likely direction I'll go next with 20k service intervals.

Well my Reflex Charcoal Sagaris was in the classifieds for 2 days until an offer was made on it last month.

Unfortunately I withdrew the sale as an offer I made on some barns I'm wanting to buy and renovate was declined (a long story and still ongoing....) and so the Sag stays until I need the cash.

In the meantime I've sold my house, which was the easy bit!! wink

People will pay for a Sag what they think they are worth.

Think more of them as a long term investment and as something fun to use (modify) in the meantime biggrin
