terrible advert, and unless its packing 600 snarling horses under that ugly bonnet its horrendously overpriced. Someone back me up?? :thumbdown:

prices must be more across the water you cant even get a zed with all the panels matching for under 4.5k

how strange, didnt get a reply to my question......... only asked him wot colour the car was, which was gonna be followed by how many wheels has it got and various other stupid questions

didnt answer me either :( i only asked what was he running under the hood

I think it's because they are a lot rarer there.

 

You are right there. I have lived in DE for 8 years and I have only seen 2 others, one in the yard of a shady turkish workshop, and one on an american army vase.

 

I know there are a few lads up north with the mob got one too.

 

Here is an idea on prices over here.

 

Don't even think the last one is going to sell at that price - it has been on that site for sale for at least 4 years!

 

Anyone wants to bring theirs here to put on german plates and sell?

I'm highest bidder on that car at the mo, but it didnt hit reserve (didnt expect it to lol) :1eye:

and thats RHD!! if you want a LHD prepare to pay a minimum of 9k+ with lots of kms.

Saw one in portugal a few years ago with blown engine and guy wanted 13k euros for it :death:

Bloody hell, the prices over Europe, should be like that here.

 

Be carefull with the red one on Ebay, he may have set a reserve a lot lower than you think, and he's hoping for someone to throw a bid in of say £2,000, the reserve will be met, and the bidder owns the car, just a thought, might be a tactic if you know what I mean.......:helpsmilie:

 

No sorry, forget that, the start bid is £5,800 isn't it?

i broke my foot in may and then in november my jag got written of when someone drove into the back of me on my mums birthday, to which i finished up in hospital with back, neck shoulder and chest injuries and then got re addmitted on the 22nd of december but couldnt keep me in as they had no beds. been to see a specialist and im somewhere between 2 and half years and never if my back gets better and i need two operations on it. it wasnt the best christmas and the reason im having to sell the vert as im going to be reduced to autos.

Ouch!!!! sounds painfull mate glad your on the mend though, shame your selling the vert but you still have another to play in . I havent got your moby number anymore I`ve got a new phone since. e-mail if you want mate or keep in touch on here

 

Daz.

my son has claimed the other one lol

Despite the fact the advert is shocking and the car looks chavtastic it still cheers me up to see people asking decent money for zeds as they have got themselves a bad image imho and this will kill prices.it was a luxury Gt car that cost almost £40k so should still be worth that in reality.When you look at Supra prices it puts it into perspective.Im longing for the time when all the nails are gone and prices creep back up.Be years yet though.

 

Very true Jimmer.......

 

question is though with the increasing taxes on feul etc will we ever see a rise or will the prices of other simular cars come down aswel as they become impratical, for most people to own? i put about 60/80 quid in mine a month just for weekend luixuary really and the enjoy it, but if those same miles start costing me that a week i wouldnt be able to afford a zed anymore. :(

 

I know what your saying mate, however I think the zed is a specialists car in the main i.e. It's mainly people that know about them or have always wanted one that buy them. Using the heart not the head. The E-type jag is still a very popular classic and most of them are 4l v8's. As Jimmer says once the sheds are gone, the prices will start to go up.

 

.....And so is what Dave says! Nowadays a lot of people will buy a 300zx as a future classic or weekend toy, so just like the E-type et al, fuel consumption will not matter.

 

BTW mate, the E-type was a 3.8 litre straight 6; and the not so good "built for the USA market" 1970s versions were 5.3 v12:balloon:

Hmmm, are you quite sure about that?

 

Don't seem to remember an E-type with a V8 in it..:wacko:

 

However, your point was it was thirsty - I concurrrrrr

 

Now - where did I park my V10 astravan?:whistling:

 

:lol:

Note to self - always read to end of thread before posting

 

:lol:

Richard & Leo, I don't know where I got the 4l v8 thing from then lol.. Must have dreamt it.

LOL - no worries mate; I guess you were thinking about the XK8; which, incidentally reminds me that the E-type was actually called the XK-E in the USA......
