Might be stunning but that's a silly price. Weren't they 30k when new? It's not a classic (yet).

 

[Flat Eric]

I appreciate the V6 etc but 59K?! Come on

Does look nice. Wouldn't dip into my savings for it though :/

Its 59k not 59p

 

[Matthew]

No way is that worth double the value it was when the owner put it into storage 10/11/12 years ago.

I can't believe no one noticed the missing piece of this car.

Started life as a Trophy iirc

 

[Gally]

Ah that's Fierny's mate iirc. I follow him on Twitter. He just re bought it iirc.

Dam you only logged on to see if any updates with @MarkCup RS

 

[Pep]

If I was rich I would buy that without thinking about it.
Car I most regret selling is my V6 I think.

 

[Mr Plums]

Very nice, but almost 60k?

That's serious money!

 

[Jekyll]

Jeez, no wonder why the trophy boys are selling there's for £20k+....

 

[ADS_V6]

In seriousness some mad car collecter will probably buy it for their collection.I'm sure this is the ly used on fifth gear and other reviews on the v6 in the media.Look at some cosworths at 85k with dealers and it doesn't seem too bad

 

[Andy Tims]

Big money for sure and with such low miles, probably for collectors only, more's the shame.

Bloody lovely though.

 

[Matt W]

Wasn't this up for £40k last time he was selling it?

 

[Chris V6 255]

Last time it sold within 48 hours at 42k.

I don't see any reason why it won't sell this time too.

I reckon this will be the first one of the V6' to exchange hands for six figures in the next five years.

 

[Jekyll]

I think you'll be hard pushed to find a lower mileage one.

Also, being LY, must be super rare with under 1k.

 

[Ex-User (72296)]

Awesome car! Follow him on FB and he has some amazing cars through.

 

[Rich..]

Maybe if it was acid yellow

 

[DrR]

Only 2 services?

 

[Ex-User (19928)]

Yes it's a lot but there's a lot of people out there who £59k is a drop in the ocean for. If I was a multi millionaire and you caught me on the right day I'd probably buy that just for a laugh since I used to love the idea of getting a v6.

I can't imagine it's that easy to come by a nearly unused LY vee these days.

 

[cat171]

Awesome! Price is a bit nuts though.

 

[HarvB]

One for wrapping in cotton wool and keeping for a rainy day I think, with the price of a good Turbo 2 now pushing well past 60k for even an average example they're dragging the other silly cars up with them.

 

[Danith]

Expensive yes but no doubt they'll get close to it.
Worth it? No, lolz.
Iconic car though so there you go.

 

[Djw John]

At that price and with those miles it's not a car anymore is it?

As soon as it goes over 1000 miles that'll hurt it's value. That's for locking up and looking at and I'm afraid, in my eyes, that's a complete waste but i know plenty others will disagree.

 

[Gally]

Maybe if it was acid yellow

Crazy considering it's one of the worst colours ever made.

 

[E11OOT]

The car was originally listed for 75k before it went on PH penmouth:

 

[Addz]

f***s sake. I couldn't shift mine when I tried for 10k so part Ex'd it.
Granted, it was only a poor mans Blue one.

 

[Willliams]

Worth every penny.. and still cheaper than it cost Renault to make it.

Which as long as they (all of the owners of them) keep selling them for, then they will sell for.

TVR owners done the same, sell them all for top money, and you have no choice but to pay top money!

Exactly. Same with a Trophy [emoji57]

 

[The_Pirate]

That V6 in the Op is about half the money of a deposit on a Trophy iirc

 

[Paris 182]

if there are people out there happy to pay that kind of money always you will have people that they will overprice their cars
