Nope.

Bit pricey isn't it..but somebody might buy

My mate bought one of these for his business way back in the 80's when they first came out, all where built in South Africa. Was an amazing looking pick-up back then and very desirable.

Not sure I would spunk 8k on one now though. Could become a collectors mind if you keep it in mint.

They'd be lucky to get £500 out of me to be honest. There's nothing wrong with the P100, but think of what other far superior pickups you can get well within that budget. A decent Ranger, for a start.

These were a poor pick up with remarkable rustability when new.

Price is a try on: someone may be foolish enough.

There is an Austin 7 on at 25K currently. That is also a try on

Prices are falling not rising. But in the words of the car salesman

'There is one borne every minute.'

I reckon it's £9k, because someone has spent that on returning it to the condition it's in and they're trying to recover it.

blimey! i know somebody who is restoring one for a bloke at the moment not worth that i doubt but may be worth something as all old fords are going up in value

I often wonder if my Dad's is still around.
Cortina shape P100 but a rare South African shape with nicer rear lights.
Air adjustable suspension to alter the height and help it carry up to two tonnes in the back.
White but with a subtle sparkle and pearl paint job.
Wolfrace wheels - large and high profile rears, small low profile fronts.
A near 400bhp V8 that started life as a Rover 3.5
A worrying ability to snap propshafts and fling the entire thing into the air, landing in a shower of sparks.

clearly waiting for someone with a white stick to come along

i'm sure you could get a mint sierra cosworth for that amount
