BILLCOR 1 Posted June 7, 2013 Just hope it went to an enthusiast who will cherish it and bring it back to its former glory and not some trader who will stick it up on Ebay for 5k Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fla 9 Posted June 7, 2013 how much was it originally advertised for? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stuarttaylor37 13 Posted June 7, 2013 £2200 iirc Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisL 17 Posted June 7, 2013 It now has "alots of paperwork" though, that's got to add value! It also has an "alarm and immobilize" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philstrm250 10 Posted June 7, 2013 Such a shame the car was sold to a rip off trader and not directly to a private buyer / enthusiast. So to recap - buy the car for 2K or less, wash and polish it, give it a service and advertise it for 6K!? He should be a banker! Was the car not advertised on here first?, oh well, it's too late now. Still, it does have alots of paperwork and immobilize after all. Bet the original owners aren't too impressed either. I've had my little rant about it now anyway!

delfinis38 1 Posted June 14, 2013 it looks good! I guess your selling it then ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philstrm250 10 Posted June 14, 2013 (edited) The pics. in the advert aren't very good or close up though, hiding the scabby bonnet leading edge quite nicely. Hopefully potential buyers will be aware that the car was originally for sale on Pistonheads for 2200, unbelievable! now it's 5K, down from 6K, hhmm. Yes it's a one owner Storm, but it will definately still need time and money thrown at it to bring it back to it's former glory. Nice original car, just a shame it was sold to a trader who bought it far too cheaply, doesn't give a damn and is now selling it for far too much. Such is life! There are several forum members cars currently for sale in the 3.5 - 4k price bracket that have been cherished and are in better overall condition than this car, although there will always be a price premium for a Storm.
