Comfort seats and PDK - not a future classic.

Buckets and manual I could easily see 65-70 grand for that wink

£50k is a great price just a shame about the Spec ...... missing all the essentials unfortunately .

Not sure where this puts mine price wise. 6200m and all the right bits ........

easy 60k car.

The R with the correct bits is a better road car then a GT3 imo. easier to live with too.

I don't get why you think these are 50k cars. A 10k premium over a regular S is a big ask for not a huge difference in spec or performance. Sounds more like existing owners trying to big up the price to sell their own on. Even those being offered at near 45k aren't perfect spec, just dealers cashing in.

Im still on the look for the right car but if prices creep up will just target something else. Im after a red manual with buckets if anyone wants to sell smile

Owners talk prices up.

Buyers talk prices down.

All I can say is it's the best car I have owned and I have owned a lot.

some times cars are so right and this is one of those times. If it were crap prices would drop.
yes you can spec or mod a S to R spec for about £2k for the sus.

but free buckets and Spyder wheels on the R plus the bit of weight out and the small bhp increase makes it a hoot to drive.

I think £45k is a ok price as long as it has Buckets, Spyder wheels, in manual and PSE,SS, PCM etc.

I don't see the point for that money if it has Buckets and Spyder wheels missing, just buy a £30k S and put the R shocks and ARB on it.

spend £5k on a R and you have a very well sorted machine.
