m6 values

I know its not the place to sell them or the time of year really but being in a position where ideally I need to off load my m6 seeing the two that just went unsold on ebay and the further two up there at present it doesn't give one much heart!

The white car has had the chains done and looks very clean as does the grey one at present. Admittedly the black one did not have the chains done but this is hardly the end of the world in terms of cost. As well as that if you have them done yourself the peace of mind and life left in them is greater so arguably a great bargaining point.

The reason for the post is just to see whether people here had seen these cars and thought the same as me.

Andy, I thought they were rising too but your criticism of ebay is assuming you dont view the car. You can go view/test/get inspected the car and then bid on it.

Admittedly these are fairly specialist cars and as such their prospective buyers may not be ebay surfers/users.

I don't have to desperatley sell the car and won't sell it for nothing as I feel it is a very good one but too many cars and house move means space will be at a premium!

I really like the m6 but other cars have a fonder spot in my heart, mainly due to them being around for longer.

I know of a 1985 one in white, which I found in west London last year.

It was decrepit - relatively speaking - with moss growing on the window rubbers and dried leaves collecting on the bootlid. It was also a non-runner, with attention to sills being one of the most obvious points, but the owner (yes, he was around) wanted £5000 for it as it stood!

The grey one you mention was indeed the runt of the litter but the grey one on there now, despite those awful wheels looks a very nice car.

As far as restoration goes, there are much more expensive cars out there, the front wings although expensive are at least bolt on.

With only 524 (i think) rhd cars made it would be very interesting to know how many survive.

Here it is:

PS Hoping to get into the storage container this weekend.

Hi James,

the seat of the pants meter said there was a huge difference but haven't had a chance to get it on a rolling road since.

It is a good car but needs front wings. As I'm not keeping it I can't really be bothered with the aggro.

Australia is probably the place for it but the Exch rate has been going trhe wrong way for them.

Thing is I will end up buying one again in a few years and no doubt that will end up being a nightmare!
