Does anyone have any offers for my car? 

Seems no one interested, Is the price too high?

Talk to me peoples

[RicePuddin]

Unfortunately I've put my buying of another car back till at least next March. Also I was looking for a bike engined project for track days (shh, don't tell the forum) so your car would have been quite nice.

[Amateb8]

I would have jumped at the chance. Unfortunately a have another Bis that is definitely going in for a partial resto. next week - ouch!

Difficult to gauge pricing but the quoted price looks fine to me but that is just my opinion. The earlier versions like yours are more popular, but as you know, prices vary quite a bit depending on condition. It will sell. Just be patient.

Good luck!

Price looks good to me, if it is as good as listing says.

I'm with David there - if the car is as solid as it looks, £1,400 is a fair price. Values are definitely creeping upwards. If I had the garage space for another one, I'd certainly be interested, especially as Red-Orange is my favourite 126 colour by far!

Thanks for sharing your advice on prices everyone.   Guess I need to just wait until someone comes along.   

I am still going to fully prepare the underside and under seal it as soon as this damn rain gives in for a bit.

Looked at this as Im in the market for a 126, unfortunately its too rich for me.

Shame really as Im only in somerset, so a nice local car.

If you drop the price drop me a line.

Hence the inclusion of the words & Offers in the advert!   

[jabeoo1]

One of the strangest replies to an advert I ever had.  

Price:    Â£1400 Offers invited  

So I get a reply that reads :

Do you still have the car? What is your best offer?   !!  

Am I getting something wrong here or is it the buyer thats supposed to have an offer that the seller thinks about..........What is my best offer? Not sure really mmmmmmmmm.  

Are people really this silly or is it a full on hope seller is desperate to give a bargain car away for peanuts    

[glover]

Youve always got to try, you never know till you try.

on that note how does £800 and collection this weekend sound?

 
 

[jabeoo1]

Thanks for the offer but I would be silly to let it go for that.  I am in no hurry for the cash and am happy to wait until someone offers me near my asking price. 

Fair point though its worth a try!

You never know sometimes time pressures or other urgent issues force quick sales but currently I have nothing to draw me into a quick sale.

Cheers for the offer though!

[glover]

no worries James I might be able to stretch that a little in the future.

in the mean time. if any time pressures or other urgent issues crop up.

I have cash waiting.

(although I have just seen a rather nice x 1/9)

[hotdeffender]

Ive seen your car when you bought m wheels and it was certainly very nice, definitely worth a minimum of £1400 probably nearer 2k.

They were having a laugh at £800!

I know a guy down in somerset that sold a blue deville for well over £1000 and it was a mess.

Keep it until you get a decent price.

[jabeoo1]

Okay I have had a handful of interested people on this at the £1400 price mark but then interest seemed to fizzle out.  I accept that this is the worse time of year to be trying to sell one of these and have taken the price down to 1200 squids.    !
