Usually a couple for sale on V6Clio.net...

Very seasonal cars, a lot of owners SORN them over winter.

But you're right - not that many for sale. Prices are low at the moment so quite a few owners are probably choosing to hang on if selling isn't necessary.

Are you after a Phase 1 or Phase 2?

In that case definitely check out V6Clio.net. Most cars are well documented on that site and if you're lucky you might find an owner willing to sell scratchchin

There's only a few think for sale on V6clio.net, none that are really low miles (under 20k). I think lots of people are hanging on to them, and a lot of former owners coming back as they're such a special car.

I won't be selling mine that's for sure

A lot of them have been exported to the continent this year. Uk prices are around half to 3/4 of the continental prices so there coming over and snapping them up!

The very best ones are in the hands of the enthusiasts & long term owners. So many have sold and then returned (myself included) to these unique and very fun cars.

There are plenty of mint phase 2's in the v6clio.net club, just need to pursuade the owners with your wallet!!

There's a blue one that sounds worth a look, owner pturner3, it's going to be advertised for sale in December.

Definitely a future classic. Saw one on Friday, 1st one I've seen for a couple of years.

Not telling you!

Nah not got any specifics in mind yet, just initial research.

Research that's made easier when people say many of these UK cars are being lost to the continent, and the prices are low here.

I might need to start some rumours to get demand down a bit hehe
