Default What is putting you off?

I am selling my car, and need it to go to make space for it's replacement.

But, up till now, not a single offer

Is there something putting you off making an offer? If so, what? Wrong price? I know it cannot be the history

I would really love it to go to a member who will appreciate it, and the effort put into keeping it on the road.

Much is said about saving these cars, well, I did exactly that and now it is available for someone else to cherish amd benefit from all the work put into it.

Go on, make me an offer, you know you want to

I think the simple fact is that most people on the forum already have a 75 or ZT

You might have more luck on Autotrader or eBay?

It certainly looks like a lovely example

It would be a cracking upgrade for someone who has a poorly or tired one, a cost effective replacement

You could be safe in the knowledge that there are no repairs to make, even the tyres have enough tread on to last many more miles yet.

It is also as good on fuel as my old diesel auto with exactly the same average mpg.

Petrol is cheaper than diesel, so it could save money on fuel too

Same with the 827, as I've had no interest on here, though a few emails from other places.
Very best of luck with your sale, Rich, as it looks like a beauty!

I think it's because you say steering wheel and other wheels are not included.
At least state or show which steering wheel and road wheels are included.
I bought my Connie for a lot less because I knew exactly what I was getting, including a wood steering wheel and Serpent wheels.
Don't be lazy, swap the steering wheel and road wheels, re 'photo and re-advertise, an honest seller attracts an honest buyer!
Harsh but true.

I guess you haven't seen the 38 pictures of the car then.

I thought "life" is the name of the game?

Or has Brucie been lying all these years?
