Did this sell then ?

I am interested in peoples opinion over the pricing, there is no profit in this car, it is now very detailed and believe it is the only one for sale in the UK.
Sadly the days are gone when you could pick them up in the 90's for a grand, there's to my knowledge less than 10 200 5T's left in the UK and some of them need restoring.
The rarity of this model has to account for something, causes great interest where ever it goes, many people in the UK remember them, when it was in OZ people had never seen one and recognised the 4 rings.
Lots of interest, has to go to a good home, I don't think the price is wrong but happy to take feedback

Why is it you want to sell the car ?
Have you lost interest in it for some reason ? in our world yes it is worth every penny, BUT when we go into the real world sadly it may not be. The day will come when people appreciate what these cars are, as in fast, reliable, comfortable, and smooth to drive, but then there will be even less of them and i think they will draw better money.
It is not my place to say what i think it is worth on the market at this time

but have you had any serious interest is perhaps what you should think about then take it from there.

Hope this sort of helps in some way

It's not for a lack of interest, I have pretty much has one of these cars for the last few decades, it comes down to finance and health reasons, a devastating loss as it's not replaceable, you can't keep everything for ever. Had my fun!!!

Appreciate your feedback, agreed they will shoot up in value, many old cars should be dumped as they were rubbish new, let not talk about 80's Leyland cars!!!

I'm sure there is a home for it somewhere, but will not give it away

sinbin5t · 23-03-15, 10:19 PM

I understand what you are saying, i have had mine since 1985

there is somebody on here who would be very interested perhaps, but i don't know if it is the thing to do to pass on a name, and i have not seen him on here in a while now

Lets give it a little time for now.

Micky!

His dream car, but he'd spent and lost a lot of money over the last few years on cars (because he's a nutter and keeps selling them!)

The right person, with a space in their garage and money to buy it just hasn't seen it yet. Have you tried car and classic, classic cars for sale, retorides etc? Some VW guy will buy it insantly, and slam it.

micky who ?

I am interested but that's a high price .
I only got a few grand for my 5e with a new rebuilt engine that cost that. trouble is not many people know what they are .

jack1 · 25-03-15, 10:15 PM

lovely cars but not a big following for them sadly ,,@ £9k someone who like these and has plenty of dosh (a collector maybe) might part ,,,, for me who has like this model for years now I would of thought even for its rarity and condition price wise in around the £6/7k mark.
but as you asked thats just my opinion
