I tried selling it on "as is". But the price was wrong. To put some numbers on this: I bought the car for £9300 then spent several hundred sorting out a few minor issues. For the sake of argument, lets say £10,000 then. I then had it officially valued by a Jaguar Club. I suggested £12,000, but they decided £13,000 would be more accurate. Due to other circumstances I then decided to sell the car so advertised it at £12,000 with a view to being quite flexible and eventually dropping down to around £10,000. In fact, I decided I wouldn't turn my nose up at any offer over £9,000.
Quite a lot of people came to see the car, but all turned their noses up at it. On guy offered me £7,000, but I declined. Was that unreasonable?
Tim as for which car is more exciting/fun to drive.... let me see... D-type / Mk 2 ? You really have to ask?
