Prices certainly are very stable at the moment - not really moved in the last three years, maybe ticked up a bit on the low mileage ones. Be interesting to see if the new GP3 drives up prices as it’s ugly and an automatic which might create more interest in the GP2... especially if the mags do comparison tests and find the new one a let down.

However, looking at the prices of GP2 advertised at the moment I would keep a healthy level of skepticism about what they actually sell for. There’s always a few chancers looking for silly money. The cars are all identical unless modified so mileage and condition is all that matters.

I keep mine because the prices are so stable, running costs are so low and insurance is practically free - oh and because it’s an absolute RIOT to drive laugh

I've owned two of these in the past; sold my last one back in Aug of this year I think.

Bloody fantastic car to drive, both on road and on track. Loved mine to bits. The values of these seem to be pretty strong imo, especially for those with 20k miles or less... I sold mine for 21k which was pretty decent for a somewhat heavily modified GP.

I'm thinking about one of these or a golf clubsport s that's my current choices.

Mini has lots good points priced included.

But I have seen as new golf and prices seem quite stable on them which is making choice hard

Best to leave car standard or add reversable modifications?
