Spotted - White R8 with stripes at Picador

[bobfredstinker]

Saw this yesterday outside Picador in Southampton, stripes and all. Possibly a Bathurst...?

[bobfredstinker]

Spotted again yesterday going into Picador in Sholing. I followed you from Tesco all the way to Picador, I was in the silver 8 series, your car sounded great. Full Wortec on loud?

Looks like it might be for sale at the moment:

And very nice it is too, although rather expensive...

Very expensive for white with stripes !!!!!

[DRC72]

Nice low mileage but that's about all and certainly is not worth 23k just because it is a Bathusrt without a charger.

[badboyburt]

Its not even a bathurst dale, just a Heron White one with Bathurst Stripes.

That makes it even worse then at that price, dreamers.

I had a email from them saying you have to be quick as we have had a lot of interest lol yea right.

They only offered me 16k for the J. This made me lol.

White ones never struggle to sell, especially with ultra low mileage.

Why gave it away, when there's a red one for the same asking price but with less miles, that hasn't sold?

That car opens up a big can of worms, showing on the log book as a 3 litre from new.

Asking price is way lower at 14999 compared to 23k for the white one.

So the road tax and insurance are never fully legal.

the dvla misrepresented many of the early cars by mistake but yes very caught for the owner to not rectify as its blatantly a mistake, that doesn't mean you should write it off. Its a good price

For what they charge for a set of spark plugs for a VXR8, without fitting, i would say the car is defo over priced!!!!!!!!!!

I would say more like £21000.00
