OK, I`ll bite.

Looks OK I suppose.. beautiful blue colour.. not everybodys cup of tea.
Should a car like this have 7s on the back ?
Can`t seen to see a price, how much would a car like that sell for ?

looks a nice car .. it was at Heddingham but didn;t manage to get a good look around.

colour change from Sepia

mean't to be 6" flat fuchs all round ( easilly changed though)

£85K I believe ?

Seems a high price for a colour change as I doubt the original colour would command 'top' price demand?

I'm sure Sam will come in here so quick question.....

"Sam, why do you take your photo's of all your cars in a horrible studio like place which is far too bright, shows lights and flash marks and drains all the colour out of your pictures???????

I'm sure this is a lovely looking car in daylight with some natural pics but it looks bloody awful in these - cars need depth of colour to accentuate the curves!!!"

Agreed.

I thought it looked really nice.

You`ve put me right off it now.

It seems that virtually all their cars have 7" rims on the back at least, some on the front as well. No wonder I can never find them

They have a bit of the showroom with white paper hanging down the walls, I guess that's where all the studio shots are taken. The rest must be done in Photoshop

Yup you can see the shutter doors or panelling of some kind through the windows. But hey who cares, nice car.

Don't get too excited folks, it's rather less than £85k. Though as we all know, £85k is nothing more than middle ground for a decent 2.4 S now.

As has been said, colour change from Sepia when restored in the 90s. Nobody knew back then that brown would go on to be the colour of choice for the discerning enthusiast.

It rains too much here in carrot land to take pictures outside, you could be waiting weeks... I think describing it as a studio might be stretching the point - as Nick says it's against a wall in our shed.

7s on the back are as it came to us, happy to swap them for 6s and keep the 7s to sell to Mr Moss. We're stockpiling them just to upset him.

In loony land may be.

Just because ONE car sells at that price does not make all cars worth anywhere near that price and as a dealer you are going to do yourself seriously out of stock if you try and start making all your potential customers think they are all worth that
