Private plates similar to this combination (R8 LRM, for example) seem to have asking prices in the range of £800-1000. Wouldn't this have a similar value then, or doesn't it work that way?

 

Again why?

Someone with an R8 and LRG initials might be stupid enough to pay £1000 for it.

I had a Taurus of that generation with the same engine.  It was a surprisingly competent car.  Plus it had a superb red velour interior.

My dad had an SHO of that shape when he lived in US of Stateside. He was a bit of a car guy but not massively nerdy like us. Anyway he came home in it and announced it had "twenty-four valves" which was misheard by some of the family to be "twenty-four voles" and the name stuck. 

I drove it a few times, it was a nice way to learn how to drive manual on LHD.

There's a young fella named Jude who might be interested in that. Would be epic collection thread.....

How do we persuade / force him to buy it?

Google tells me that's about £3500. That's remarkable value for money I would think. 

I think so too. So it will be exciting how long it takes before it is sold.

I can freely admit I have never, ever seen one of these in my life.

Colt Lancer Turbo EX2000

I have a strong suspicion that this will end up at a local Mitsubishi specialist near me. Of who is renowned for tuning and racing these.

Opel Ascona - 1.6 S  - Base model?  1985
Location Netherlands Price only 500€. There is some rust, naturally, and some damage to the paint on the boot. Wonder how did that happen? Overall not so bad. The Dutch MOT (APK) run out in June 2021

The damage looks like it may have happened because someone Keyed it and over time the laqueur has peeled off where the paint was damaged.

I hope not, can't be many original cars left

I like this, and didn’t realise they did the Charade in a saloon. MOT history looks fairly good with very low mileage and it looks like this is the top of the range model GLXI SE and for bonus points it’s also an auto! £595 Bromley

I'd still consider owning one, ideally a pee facelift. I really like how they look from the back...

Not quite, yes it is a basic LS but it a. is an almighty powerful 1.6 instead of the 1.3 and b. it has a couple of options, such as a right side mirror.

Fair price, if it isn't too crusty underneath...

Not a terrible way to end up for a homologation road car..... as a race car.

A local shop owner had one of these in the late eighties / early nineties. My dad owned the only other Lancer I'd seen of this shape.

Cool? No - dad had a 1400 GLX ..... but  it was great. Did a 360 on a frosty February evening not long after I'd passed my test in 1989 follecting my parents and my uncle/aunt from an evening meal. It was a single track road in Carmarthenshire with a ditch/hedge on both sides. No damage - didn't touch the sides.

Silence broken by uncle Mike's words "well I shit a brick"

Happy mammaries😁
