Silver maloo is back for sale on auto trader, he wants £14995 plus vat, the other red ute(who claims it is a maloo with the stickers)is on at £11450, which must mean mine should be somewhere in the middle of this? In which case I really did get a bargain lol!

I know these are rare but are they worth these prices in reality?

It's worth what someone will pay! If it's a run of the mill grey car then you can refer to the glasses guide but anything out of the norm is worth whats its worth.

You're forgetting the crewcab one. hehe

Both you and I know what we are willing to pay for a two-door big boot version, because we have both done it. I think yours is worth a bit more than you paid, as prices have risen, however you need to find the buyer. I hope ours is, because of the additions I've made.

Advertise yours for £20k. It guarantees that you'll keep it. wink

I paid a lot lot less for my 2005 SSZ (not a Maloo I know but it still has a 350 bhp V8)......I consider myself very fortunate to have secured it looking at current prices. Still needs IVA and registering (all in hand)

Or spray the whole thing. smile

I thought silver was a lot easier to match nowadays. Red is a git, as it shows different colours in streetlight.

It is easier but can often spot resprayed silver, unfortunately it's the park up dents that good driving doesn't prevent anyways back on to topic, hope you manage to get the Iva sorted easily.

Pretty sure the silver Ute on Autotrader for £12,995 is a friend of mines dad's old one.
It was immaculate and maintained regardless of cost plus it has a few nice Walkinshaw performance parts.

Nearly bought it until I found out about the plus vat bit, at least he has dropped the price but probably saw Jame's one pop on.
It is in good nick and gutted it was too much at the time, still all ended well!
