Thoughts on this one then - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/231672937307?clk_rvr_id=892946258753&rmvSB=true

Hum, thats doesnt look like a simple recommisioning.

It's incredible to see the cars alfa used to make and those being manufactured from the last 20 years till now....

Seems There is quite a lot of bodywork to be done on this one

 

[allandwf]

No idea what the underside will be like if the top has so much surface rust. Good ones can be had for £35k ish, so doesn't leave a lot to restore this at £24k.

 

[Contigo]

It will cost you 50k at least to get it done properly.

I saw one at Carfest at the weekend and also this lovely one at Newbury Car Show.

 

[allandwf]

I used to see one as a daily driver in Aberdeen in the mid eighties, along with a dark blue Khamsin!

 

[Contigo]

They don't make em like this anymore

 

[StuartW]

What a great opportunity

 

[Andyk]

They don't make em like this anymore

The interior is just delightful. Full of character........Say it quietly but not a fan of the exterior....

MOH 35 is Charles Lumbys car it is truly stunning and has been for years, £24k for a car that needs quite a lot of work seems pricey as it will cost more than what it is worth to get it finished.

Says its going to auction and price is only a guide, dream might perhaps be a better description of the suggested price?

 

[spkennyuk]

Get it on wheeler dealers. Ed china will buff that off and put in back on the road in an hour for £500

If you have a look at their other items for sale there is a whole bunch of cars listed for the same auctions including a Mk1 Golf GTI, a QP and an M3 along with some nice looking classics including a stag. Guide prices seem to be all over the place.

Would love an E30 M3 but a bit rich for me now

 

[Contigo]

One was at auction when I got mine but it didn't make the reserve, a deal could be done on it apparently.

 

[Wack61]

If they've got any sense that'll be a no reserve auction

24k is a dreamers price , if that's the reserve it'll be unsold

 

[Classico]

Never liked the look of the Montreal. And some deep pockets necessary for that one.

For masochists only.

 

[zagatoes30]

This made £33k incl buyers premium, the market is still mad

Barn find Montreal

 

[StuartW]

Mad indeed ...

I had a near new Montreal back in the 70's and wish I had never sold it. Swapping it in for a Ferrari 308 GT4 was a huge mistake
