[oblio]

NB Mods: this isnt an advert...I dont have one to sell


- A brand new full body respray

- Full body off chassis restoration

- Immaculate interior c/w original wood veneer dash

- Genuine 56k on the clock, R Reg (1998)

- Oodles and oodles of receipts, history etc

- Red external, tan leather/hide interior


Any ideas on prices gratefully received...or even idle speculation would help

Not an easy question to answer as a few other bits of info could be relevant - ie is it a dealer of private sale, any accident damage, etc. Also if the respray and chassis work is because the car had not been looked after then that would also affect the price.
I realise I'm not being helpful here but it could be anywhere from a private sale at maybe £15ish to some dealers who might be asking £20k and maybe more.

I'd go a bit higher - 18k.

I could see at least 18k these days.

I`d say to be realiatic 20K. From what you are saying though the car is as new so probably better than those that the dealers are offering. So with that in mind some may say more.

the above may be correct - my low £15k was very much worst case. Nice to see that Griff values are moving up I suspect ...

If all work listed above has been done to a high standard at least £20k if car straight.

Add to that, the candles are behind tinted persplex. Tinted! Why?

Just polished mine up last night (as they are off the car due to respray), and was wondering if I should get clear ones in their place. I too am in to originality - waffling on this one.

Thanks

The reason I ask is that my old Griff (Jeffsy) is back in the country and requires some work done to it.

By assessing the values it helps to sharpen the focus on the return that can be made when it is sold.

I'm not buying it back btw

If its in the same condition it left the UK and has been well maintained then £20k ish seems realistic. Seem to recall it went to France for less than this.

Not sure of the relevance of this as I guess the market may have changed in 5-6 years!

Looks like £20 - £20+ seems the consensus

Just stating fact. I know the car very well.

You back in the market then?
Be good to see some more characters back in the fold!
