What's taken your fancy in the classifieds today?

He may not have been able to afford a 250 GTO 20 years ago just, where as the Saxo probably cost him a grand or something.

Definitely not the same level of investment potential as the Ferrari, but it's like a lot of cars that were cheap 20 or 30 years ago and now at silly prices, your Mk1 and 2 Escorts, Twincams, old Vauxhalls, anything 90s Jap.

Not saying he'll get £11k for it either, but not too mental a price when you look at what mint 106s go for, plus there was a low mileage VTR made decent money at auction.

This, it's a collectable car.

They really are great, personally I'd rather use it and keep it good than keep it locked up, but then I'd be the same with this imaginary 250 GTO too!

60 ****ing grand, holy ****!

I always told my Mrs id pick her up one of these at some point, that was of course years ago when they were imported regularly

Now if she ever mentions it im like

I don’t get that at all, dry stored for 20 years.

I mean it’s a Citroen Saxo, not a Ferrari 250 GTO.

Crazy money at 11,500.

I like how it's as not messed with and as if it's left the factory but with 39k lowering springs exhaust system and grooved discs

Where I am coming from was more around the point of storing it, and not just driving and enjoying it.

I meant that regardless of how long it was stored and how few miles it had on it, it was never going to increase in value such in the way a 250 GTO or something similar would.

The whole storing the car just seemed like a pointless waste of time, at least to me anyway.

Just because it was stored doesnt mean someone was waiting on it increasing in value. If I had space id have a fleet of cars in storage, just because I like them / will use it some day / couldn't be bothered selling it / worth nothing so not worth hassle of selling....

Yeah I know what you mean, seems silly storing away a cheap car. Maybe had a couple to choose from, or maybe it was a family member who died and they kept hold of it, who knows.

People store all sorts of stuff away, same as the ones who have clean Clio 172/182s, EP3 Civics etc now, these will all be worth money one day once the rest are butchered, crashed or rust away. Saying that they've already gone up in price but you know what I mean lol

 

[Eager]

I’ve a friend that could afford to buy the usual collectible fords, RS, cosworths etc. instead, it’s Ford Orion’s with 600 mile on them, old Granada’s you could eat your dinner off etc.

All sorts of people collect different things, often to be different. He’s into it if it’s silly low miles and not the usual mainstream collectible

 

[PaulYDP]

Did they come from factory with dark wheel option? Thought it was only std silver?

They're phase 2 wheels and not phase 1 so it's definitely not as it left the factory. Still not many left in that condition or number of owners!

Like - that's lovely and all. But at that price point it's for collectors only for whom money isn't an object, surely?

The 997 is my favourite shape of 911, but for that money I'd be looking at a 992 if it was actually a dream car purchase.

 

[Boydie]

GT2 is a rare car and still been driven 24k miles but yeah, would be collector money for sure

I watched a YouTube video on that, there are some other incredibly rare and unique elements about it as well.

Something to do as a tribute to Ferry Porsche, as he passed away in line with its production.

The guy in the next street to me has this for sale, I think it’s awesome! He needs to take better pics though as it sits on his driveway looking split mint everyday.
