    Greenlight - No more agreed valuations

    Yes but they don't seem to realise that the Trophy is a different value to a 182, and a lot of ins co,s only pay out on the 182 values... Last time I looked there were only 4-5 cars for sale... And unfortunately not at £8K / 115K milers.

    Just out of interest how old are the tyres on the car.? Who did the Sachs rebuild.? To get "top" money, itl need to be mint... ie front splitter fitted, steering wheel sorted, [it looks a bit melted ], decent , reasonable age tyres, etc etc...[ That's from what I can see with the limited pics]...
