I've been on the lookout for one of these for a while. They don't come up for sale very often.

I think this one is out of my budget!

Where do these guys buy their cars from? there always so mint, unless they have a mike brewer/edd china operation going on

Good luck in selling it.

As soon as I read the post the first thing to come to my head was 4 star classics, such a wonderful collection.

Looks like they sold the £13k 5 GT Turbo.

It's not difficult - just keep an eye on the relevant classifieds, owners clubs, eBay, the like. Bit of a freshen up and the job's a goodun'.

I see nothing particularly redeeming about that car that tells me it is worth that much.

4 star classics always has excellent condition cars but definitely always abot regular market price. Lovely car though but only because it's so old and retro. My brother had a mk1 Scirocco Storm back in the day.

One man's pile of **** is another man's treasure and all that.....

It's not the latter for me.

You could say the same about many classics though.

4 Star's stock is split between the overpriced average (albeit well presented) stuff and the awesome super low mileage classic stuff imo. The white MK1 MR2 they have on there used to live near me, and sold not long back. It was nicer than most of the rotboxes around but was far from mint.

15k for a rusty old mini? errrm?

"andy" · 1 Sep 2013 at 23:10

hilariously overpriced for me. yes they dont show up for sale much but when they do they dont sell for much more than a mk1 golf/jetta do they ?

id love one though... especially this one http://www.edition38.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=410628
