Sagaris on Collecting Cars next week

[s3dave]

Strange, there is now another on the site (coming soon) - a blue one, 45K miles, looks pretty standard but with a FFF engine:

Try Str8six for the best price before putting it up for auction, you never know your luck, personally wouldn't trust the FFF engine with a very a long barge pole

What a strange thing to say. Especially to someone trying to sell their FFF engined car....

Probably trying to talk the price down.

RG used to give very good money for Sags as well.

Well, all a bit academic now as the auction has gone live. No backing out now!

The other Sagaris - the one that started this thread - is nowhere to be seen. Not even in "Sold Cars". Maybe the owner changed their mind.

Good luck with the sale

Ah, ok. That answers that question then.

Thanks!

Watching with interest and the greatest of luck to you. Fingers crossed on a good result.

Good luck! I seem to recall the TVRs that have gone through on CC have done much stronger money than I would have expected.

TVR have done quite badly on CC, you can search all sold ones here.

The Blue Sagaris looks great, I keep throwing bids in, as the wine goes down.

The bidding seems to have stalled at £45k, has the auction peaked too early ? Maybe a fierce bidding war to come early next week

Apparently this is perfectly normal.

The serious bidders are probably now biding their time, and the chancers have been weeded out.

It's a website, which acts as an online auction house for specialist cars. The person who originally created PistonHeads is involved with it.

Edit: For the avoidance of doubt, it is not in any way associated with PistonHeads which is now owned by CarGurus and therefore notionally actually in competition with Collecting Cars.

Collecting Cars also do a pod cast that is presented by Chris Harris and Edward Lovett ( of Lovett car dealerships ) they have some great guests on there. There’s a brilliant interview with Nicky Grist.

Don't lower your reserve, they will ask if it's getting close. They make money when it sells...
