Reef master 10 Posted March 13, 2016 Hi all, Again all odds its listed on a well known auction site... Simon who came to purchse we thought had fallen in love, had a drive said it was better than he had thought paid a deposit... Then shortly after i had a message saying due to problems his end and things out of his control he would be pulling out???? Have had so much interest thought running an auction was the fairest way then you all get a look in . Good luck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Reef master 10 Posted April 15, 2016 hi all She is still there and for sale... It sold on eBay with the bidder asking no questions and after bidding 3k offered a few hundred quid without even looking at it. It's £3k and a good one :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's £3k and a good one :-) I remember a time when eBay wasn't full of morons... it's such a shame! Hope you do manage to get this sold eventually!

Reef master 10 Posted April 15, 2016 Cheers, I'm wondering if it's a sign and I should be putting her into storage for 10 years... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted April 15, 2016 Just out of curiosity, has it ever had the clutch or timing chains replaced? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dox 23 Posted April 15, 2016 Cheers, I'm wondering if it's a sign and I should be putting her into storage for 10 years... If you don't lower the price you'll still have it in 10 years anyway. The bodywork is poor, every panel needs work and paint - £3K for a good job that will last a while if looked after. The running gear will need work after being stood all this time, the dash has holes from the phone kit and needs replacing, the only thing good about the car is the seats, worth £500-600 or so. Roger Chatfield recently sold his mystic storm for around £5K, 3 forum enthusiast members and online history for years. Before you dismiss my ramblings as rubbish, I've bought 3 cars off this forum, a VR6 with leather, a green storm and a G60 rolling shell, all 3 combined cost less than the £3K you're asking. Prices are creeping up for the best examples out there, yours has been for sale for 2 months, at £3K (or £4K buy it now) I can't see it selling anytime soon.

Jim 2 Posted April 15, 2016 Have to agree with Dox unfortunately. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g0ldf1ng3r 15 Posted April 15, 2016 from the experience of the gf selling her storm last year - you haven't a chance at that price with those faults I am afraid restore now or store away if you want a good price, else I would expect a big drop from your figure Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dox 23 Posted April 15, 2016 Have to agree with Dox unfortunately. I can't remember a car in worse condition selling on here in recent years? I've seen much better cars broken for spares. I'm not meaning to be nasty, just realistic Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yanmack 11 Posted April 15, 2016 I suppose on the plus side it has an mot, but like the last few posters have to agree it needs alot of money throwing at it. Might be better if you can't get what your after to consider restoring it yourself. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
edd 0 Posted April 15, 2016 Have to agree too I'm afraid; for my part I picked up a completely original 1 owner from new 120k storm (with full history and original bill of sale stating storm from the dealership and comprehensive Fsh) a few years ago for just over £3k in excellent condition with only a 50p size of rust bubbling on one wing. I would say Persons (who want storms in particular) generally want them in or to get them up to a very good condition and that's costs money...

seanl82 23 Posted April 15, 2016 I paid £1250 for mine in pretty similar condition, though it was 3 years ago. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
