Car valuation
wicket - 27/3/15 at 04:14 PM

My brother-in-law passed away several years ago, but his car is still in the garage. My sister-in-law has now decided its time to sell the car. It is a 1978 (T reg) yellow MG B GT. It had a lot of restoration work carried out by a local workshop some years ago and my brother-in-law was very particular about looking after the car and it was kept in immaculate condition. It is currently a non starter but I believe that its only because it has stood idle for sometime.

Anybody any idea as to a sensible asking price?

More details would be useful, such as mileage, current condition, number of owners etc. Given that it's a non-starter I wouldn't have thought it would fetch more than about £2K IMHO...

Under the circumstances and with all the memories and emotions involved and everyone wanting happy memories I would say call the restoration guy used previously get car mot d and then get a decent figure selling to someone who will appreciate it. If he had anything to do with the local MGOC you could approach them too.
