Is this early 182 known? HS53LGU

Does anyone know of this Rb? Would this be a press release car ?

 

[Martin_172]

if parkers reviewed it then yes it will have been a press car, the top gear one was a similar reg, HS53LHK

Yeah would’ve been a press car on a plate that early.
Not sure if it’s the same as one of the RBs that was on top gear, but one of those was in a very sorry state a few years ago, guy trashed it and didn’t realise it was an important car.

This is one of the top gear cars, different plate. Sorry state as of late 2017.

Value wise do we think it would be worth more if in good condition in comparison to any other RB ?

My own personal view would be yes, provided it was in a top notch condition. History is always important on any car, but by how much is anybody’s guess. As it stands it looks like a tired old RB.

It’s a selling point, personally I don’t think it’s worth more. More cool points than anything. Maybe in a few more years if/when values start to really appreciate. But conditional and history are more important IMO

Yeah probably worth a hair more than a standard 182, as above if it's in good nick though. I assume it has sat nav like the other RB press cars I've seen?

 

[walker182]

I think I spy a sat nav ???

Yeah that's a sat nav car, has the sat nav antenna too if the dash wasn't obvious enough. Looks well presented from that photo. Is it up for sale somewhere?

 

[walker182]

It’s not up for sale as such but I’m hoping I can make a offer on it -

Currently all I know is it’s not running, something to do with either ecu or some kind of other module [emoji2371]

No mot or a drivers seat at the moment but hey.
