You’re all a bunch of knobs thinking you’re all merc experts. Cars like these are going up because they’re rare! Might look st in pictures but you when you seen them on the road I reckon all of you low life keyboard warriors look at them then look on eBay to buy one and you wait prices will be going up higher every 10 years. So enjoy ranting for another 10 years lol

Indeed. I wonder if he ever sold it...it was mint!

£15k looks a way off.

It doesn’t even have an MOT.

If it was a 306 Rallye it might be close to that figure but the ugly sister is worth nowhere close to that!

Brave man, surprised couldn't be bothered to get MOT done. Will be interesting at the end price.

Reading the description they have added all the Titan stuff. What a state that is, what’s the bork factor on a continental

Pre 1918 Silver Ghosts. Not all, occasionally with an understandable price, but most seem to be just numbers picked out of a hat.

This one's got to be a zero added on by mistake, surely?

Started off a seemingly fair price and plummeted as I continued to read

Classic Range Rover prices seem to be all over the place. That one at £9.5k is a lot when you look at others in that price bracket. There seems to be some nice 90s examples at £20-£30k.

I find them very desirable and if I had the means, would buy the best example I could.

Looks like someone offered him the £15k he wanted. Or perhaps he got scared and ended the auction when he realised it may actually be a £1500 car.

Cripes. Think someone saw the one at KGF a few months ago and has got a little over excited!

Surely that’s £1,800? I love how there’s one not particularly good photo.

There is a Vanden Plas for £3,200, I wouldn’t particularly want either, but if I decided I wanted an Allegro, I’d first go to A&E to get a CT of my head, but then I’d go for the Vanden Plas.

Exactly what I thought. The KGF stuff gets a lot of stick on here, but they seem to shift stock quite fast - including the All-agro. Either they sell for nothing close to the asking price every time, or in fact every one of us on this thread are actually completely clueless about the current market...

Have just spent half an hour looking at old Mercs, as you do

Two observations, one dealer seems to be trying to control the market of 80s SLs with lots of stock all at top dollar and a private seller has a fantastic investment opportunity........

I give you the £100k 1991 500SL.....

I'm pretty sure that was £10k and is a typo. I'm almost certain I've seen it before on C & C for around 10 or 15 k. If it is 100k, then the seller is a fool.

Many questions to be asked on this

It’s not for me, but I don’t think it’s overpriced.
