The car looks good enough and got the right bits on it, I think Ebay is pretty good at finding the actual market value of most things.

So its probably the price , and maybe living way up there in Scotland may reduce the amount of local punters.

donut: sold his recently for £4995 , I believe Avoneer struggled to sell his Tiger /Pinto circa £5.
I saw a 1983 Caterham/ Crossflow advertised last week for £6750!!

Not tryin to be in anyway smart or annoying but you did ask what people thought.

all the best

The car looks great but you are getting near cheap Westfield prices. I also suspect the engine is putting people off, I have no doubt it is just as good as any modern engine but there are lots of bike engine cars for that price which people like the thought of. For what I know...I suspect you should be asking nearer £6K and dont mention the negative points...

I tend to agree with the others that it is prob a bit overpriced, a nice car but maybe better to put it up for 6k.

Weather has started closing in and will start depressing prices from now til spring. Not many punters when it's raining - especially up in Scotland.

If you want top price and can stand to wait it might be worth waiting for next years sun.

Thanks guys, i have plans to tidy up the bodywork over winter if it doesn't sell, then try again at the shows or maybe keep it... i'm sure i could be persuaded once the weather warms up again.
