Is this a good price?

[ApexJimi]

Mk2 MX5 1.8, 1999 on a T plate, circa 60k on the clock with FSH, cambelt change etc.

£3k

[MX-5 Lazza]

Maybe. Impossible to say without seeing it.

I realise that, I was just looking for an answer on the face of it, in the assumption that the car's a good 'un

On the face of it and assuming there are no hidden (or not so hidden) nasties then it looks like a good enough price. Can't say whether it ought to be £2800 or £3500 though...

[ApexJimi]

Well, the chap was originally wanting £3,650 and on Fri evening, was absolutely refusing to budge an inch from £3.5k.

I left it at that, and this morning after a bit of to-ing and fro-ing, he has agreed to £3k.

Dunno whether this is a good or bad thing....

[ApexJimi]

Any further advice folks?

Just been talking to the guy and he's sent me some detailed photo's, the car looks really mint actually, with 4 Toyo Proxes etc.

My gut feeling is that £3k is a good price, and in a year's time I should be able to get most of, if not all, back on resale.

or am I talking shyte?

The seller has knocked £600 off the price, I assume you like the car, so why not buy it or look for something else.

You're probably right, I'm going down for a look at it so we'll see....

No, it's too expensive. But give me his details so I can go and buy it myself.
