Seriously Overpriced Cars

If that Escort is worth 5k and that X3 12k, then sure.Because it’s a far more interesting car than either of them.
It’s rare, it’s a decent steer, why not. And that’s from someone who is not a fan of these.

"Immaculate MOT History, NEVER EVER had a MOT Advisory Since Birth or Missed a Beat, Check for Yourself LT07SXS" is my particular favourite part.
It had an advisory for a rear tyre in 2019.
"Private seller", eh?
Doubt.

Being honest we could probably have a thread alone for Fords, seems as last few posts have all been Fords 
For something a bit different then, how about this '06 Continental GT at 1,000 miles for a whopping £62k. I sort of understand low-mileage collectability for some examples, even though it goes against my desire to see them used and enjoyed. And I actually find myself liking these Conti GTs more and more as time goes on. But they aren't rare, scarce, or interesting. Sure "find another at this mileage!", but why would you want to? Especially when you can find a well looked after example all day long for a third of the price.
Takes all sorts I guess.

I've already seen one crazy overpriced naff old Escort in this thread a few pages ago, it can have a a friend now. A '91 1.3 Popular with 27,000 miles for £5,500!
Five and half thousand of your hard earned for something that's not beautiful, fast, interesting, well-specced, tuneful, historically important, or remotely rewarding to drive. Talk about value.
I think we have reached a new low of stupidly high prices for crap cars - check this one out a basic mk4 1.4 L 3 door, escort, lovely condition, must be worth £1,000? No, they have it advertised at a whopping £10,000 ! madness.Five and half thousand of your hard earned for something that's not beautiful, fast, interesting, well-specced, tuneful, historically important, or remotely rewarding to drive.
