There have been examples that have sold for £15K+ but they were pristine and very low mileage, but £17,500 and 'reserve not met' hes just trying to see if there are any numpties IMHO. Form the pics, doesnt even look that good of an example??!! I might go look at it this weekend just for a laugh its only up the road in Woking?!

As for there only being 250 left hes probably somewhere near right as its actually a V8S not a 290S! The fact that he has put the wrong name of the car, would make me suspicious anyway, if he has had the car a while (which 'reluctant sale' would suggest) he should know its a V8S????

IMHO hes a chancer looking to rip someone off, a normal 73K example would be at least £7K less than that.

So it's an S3 (misdescribed as a V8S) for sale for £17.5K!

...and only 250 S3's left remaining, no wonder it's so valuable.

Werent many V8S described as "290S" on the original owner document?? Maybe he's one of the few who forgot to get it changed.

Keep talking those prices up

He may be trying to rip someone off, but doesn't look like he's having much success - 15 hours to go and.... 0 bids!

I reckon his missus has told him to sell it....


"Yes Dear... I've put the car on 'E'Bay.... No Bids though... I don't know why"

"Maybe we should keep it for another year and see what happens to the prices...?"



Devious lot us TVR owners...!
