Dodge Challenger SRT8 - Upset your neighbours with this American Icon

Est £17,500 - £23,500

This car is in auction on The Market website. The auction is LIVE now and finishes on 8th April. Price is an estimate.

Our car rolled down the production line in early 2013 and was immediately dispatched to Kuwait where it has spent most of its life. Sold and maintained by the local Dodge dealership and with the mileage approaching 127,000kms, the car has clearly been used and enjoyed.

The car was owned for many years by a police officer before being bought last year by a lawyer, working in the motor trade. He had the car thoroughly inspected before purchase, keen as he was to buy the best Challenger available.

Having now moved on to his next car, his brother in the UK became the next owner and we are now offering the car on his behalf.

The car arrived in the UK in February and immediately underwent its Individual Vehicle Approval Test (IVA) and was MoT'd. It passed the latter with no advisories and therefore is now completely road legal in the UK.

The car has had some choice upgrades in its life. A new induction kit is fitted along with a Bowler exhaust and we are reliably informed that it now screams like a wailing banshee! Ideal for upsetting the neighbours.

Also fitted are a rather snazzy set of Hellcat forged alloys, a lovely addition.

Standard equipment level is high, with electric heated driver’s seat and heated steering wheel amongst the perhaps unexpected luxuries.

The seller tells us the car drives really well and is unlikely to disappoint the lucky new owner. It could be you!

The Challenger is a big car, designed for wide American roads. The black paintwork helps to disguise the car’s bulk and, in our opinion, adds an air of menace. You will be noticed driving around in this car.

Black is a notoriously unforgiving colour, but we think the eight-year-old paint has stood the test of time rather well. It is not immaculate, but with a good detail valet we think it will really look the part.

Worth pointing out is a scratch on the rear bumper and some dirt/corrosion visible on the sunroof runners when it is opened.

We rather like those Hellcat alloys with the red accent, and they appear to be in fair condition. New tyres were fitted all round last November, though we are not familiar with the make.
