Cars that are for sale for years

[acme]

Not something I usually see, but there's an Integra that's been for sale for years, at least three I think and maybe more. I can't work it out, surely it's simply too expensive for the market, or so you'd think, I note after being the same price for all of those years it's just gone up by two thousand!

Any others out there that you know of?

Cheers

Very rare car, but not worth £80k, plus something doesnt seem right, im sure I have read stories about it having issues in the past. + mileage is going up looking at pics.

Rarity aside, if I was dropping £80k on such a rare care I'd want it properly presented and detailed vs some blurred scattergun collection of photos many of which include dirty parts of the car. Thats not even going as far as mentioning the garage who is offering it for sale.

Some one in the South west has been trying to sell an 03 plate Pug 406 Estate for the last two years
It started at £3900 and he still want £2400 this year .
If he waits any longer it will become a classic and go up in value

I own a couple of cars like that. They're a little quirky so it so it doesn't matter if you list them for $1000 or $10000. They'll sell when the right owner comes along.

Yup, there you go.

I swear this GT3 has been for sale at the same garage for at least 5yrs. They run an ad in the back of Motorsport magazine and it always catches my eye.

These people are probably using the cars in many cases.

I used to know a guy who had seven or eight interesting cars. Most constantly for sale on Ebay, or so it seemed to me. He would use them, whilst having them up for sale for a price he was willing to sell them for. Sooner or later, a buyer would come along. He wasn't doing it to make money, I don't think.

Occasionally someone would show up and buy one, and he would get something else.

Not as long but KTR had a 2015 Megane Trophy for sale for about two years, looked great, sold in Feb I think.

Back when I bought my RX-7 in 2012, Rod Leach's Nostalgia were advertising a 'very special' RX-7 for a very special price of £27.5k which seemed ambitious, to say the least, when you could get a good car for sub-£5k, and even a big power one for under £10k.



it was for sale for years, became a standing joke on the RX-7 forums. But Rod had the last laugh as values rose, and I believe it sold some time ago now.

Whole on that ITR is odd, it's not been MOT'd since 2016. I've just assumed rightly or wrongly that there's something wrong with it, other than the price, that until recently was over the top but not massively. But to add two grand, and at the moment, very bizarre!

[Dapster]

Ha ha ! My favourite used car EVER!!

This unmolested, totally original, not fked about with 993 was on sale at the aforementioned Motorcrooks of Keighly for, look in the window, £70 grand back in Feb 2014.



6 years later, its still for sale at the same place. You'd the think they'd price it to sell wouldn't you? Too right, check the price out now...

Those arches look ‘amateurish', but sure the VAD people knew what they were doing.

Unless it was sale or return he could've made vast amounts more money selling it for half and using the freed up money time and again in the meantime.

No idea if it's changed price or not, Ferrari 360 (6 1/2 years apparantly!)

There's also a 575M plus a Gallardo from 2013
