£12500 looks a bit steep even though on the surface it looks very clean

It says refurbished inside & out, but that could mean anything from a wash and polish to a full resto. I'll bet anyone looking underneath would find it hasn't been touched.

Also £12k? I'd like to think the prices were going up that fast, but realistically, half that?

But not when we look for/need parts. Rusty junk in someones back yard all of the sudden is 6k because a driver sold for 12. Call me naive, I prefer them as unique but not expensive.

Sorry, didn't mean to sound like a knob. I get the sale price and they have been on the rise over the last few years but if this is a 12k car then some of the beauties on this site are 20k plus. I think maybe in 2030, but not 2020.

I'm not sure when this car was found in a barn. But it came from my town, guy bought it to restore and either realized it was too big a job or as he said had other projects first. Sold it for £800ish.
