Mate have a look at my car, now im not saying it is great or anything like that but i paid 7k for it and it would give this spec c a run for it's money.

20k is a lot of money! And i don't think this car here is worth that money.

IMHO Im allowed to have one right

Nice! How long did it take to sell? Good to see a car selling for what it's worth & one in the eye for the SNet doom-mongers.

Mr 400bhp - is your car an 06 plate? My guess is no hence you paying £7k for yours ... you pays your money & all that.

Don't think you can compare your Bugeye with that Spec C.

As i said i could give one a run for it's money, if you have one send me a pm and well meet for a race, Brands on the 27th if you want

Really im not saying my car is the same as a spec c, i just don't feel its worth the money, im sorry i don't feel the same as a few others on this forum but it is a forum and everyone has a right to there own thoughts on things.

Was about a week i think.

I thought personally it was worth close to what they were asking. Special car with choice mods and unique colour.

I thought it was a bit expensive too, but it sold quickly.

Std Hawkeye Spec C's have last month sold for between £17k to £19k.
So if that one sold for most probably £19.5k, thats is a bargain considering the spec on it. £11k on mods is probably correct considering Powerstation 400bhp upgrade(inc engine strengthening & turbo upgrade etc); AST Type 4 remote; Porsche/AP BBK; Miltek system; 18" wheels etc etc.

Given the spec, i thought it was a bit of a steal too.

In 2007 I tried to sell my Spec C - advertised in various places - very low mileage, AP 6 pots, and the very best solid offer I got was £18k. This was a Litchfield MY06 55 reg. In 2008 I pretty much decided to keep it, advertised it once at £16,995, I did not get a single sign of interest in a month. That was nearly a year ago when the market was much stronger than it is now.

If there are standard Spec Cs of this age (2.5-3.0 years old) actually selling for £17-19k then my hat and mouth are going to be in close contact!!

There have been two Spec Cs sold in the last month on the wrong side of £15k (as in sold, not advertised). However this is still a 50% residual in three years so pretty good.

On this basis, £19k is a strong price. IMHO is not often that modifications add anything like their retail value to a car - they may help a car move in the current flat market.

Still, it is a lovely car irrespective of what we think of the value.
