For Sale - 442/500 - £7500

Really? I must've missed those. Looking at the other examples that are for sale currently I believe it's fairly priced.
It's still less than average mileage and the 2nd hand car market was weaker when you purchased yours.
I've seen 197s with similar milage that are a year younger sell for over a grand more and I know which of the two cars I'd prefer to own.
I think with it being only one owner, the damper refurb and having the cam belt change done will help it sell (most trophies will need a cam belt change at some point this year and it's a job that costs over £500 including a service, damper refurb costs are similar).
If I was in the market for one I'd be prepared similar money for a clean example which has had these jobs done vs one which has say 15000 miles less.
Thanks for discouraging people with the reply though.

I dont think £7.5k is bad at all. Seems pretty rare to find 1 owner examples now, and with the £500 refurb and £500 for Cam Belts all done, it would suggest it's been well looked after.
Good luck with the sale. Please pass on this sites details to the new owner. . .

Nice to see a few more fitting comments for this for sale thread. I agree that it's a well priced example and it will be a Shame to see another original owner move on. The mileage isn't high really - must be below average.
Best of luck with the sale

Isnt average mileage 15k a year? That would make most T's average mileage around 75K?

It's been less than 24 hours but I've received an offer a little lower than I'm willing to accept.
I'm in no rush to sell so I expect to get what I'm looking for.
Cheers,

precisely - 12-15k I believe.
Good to hear you're having interest- with time I'm sure you'll get what you're after
hoolio, you summed up my feelings too.
ave for all cars would be around the 70k - 75k mark as stated but trophys ave would be around the 60k mark imo (going by the Trophy Mileage thread) - they don't generally get used as much as say mondeo's etc...
So still well below ave miles. even 3k below my own steed which is used as a second car!
I'd say it's priced very competitively, it'll go for that money....

Very fair price i think. The last thing we want is a load of T's selling for too little and lowering the value, after all we all own one!? :lol:
