Guest Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 (edited) I'm not surprised to see this sort of asking price. We, on the Continent. are already used to this sort of prices! In fact 35K euros for a nice looking TR4 (lets assume that it's as glamorous as it looks on the pics) is even a little cheap. Here's an example: http://www.thegallerybrummen.nl/en_EN/autobedrijf/onze-collectie.html Scroll down until you find a silver TR4. And believe me, this father-and-son business know how to sell. More that 300 classics annually. Most are sold to the East. My TR had an insurance revaluation last October. The appraiser told me that really good TRs are fetching 'top dollar' and prices are rising. Menno Edited December 13, 2014 by Menno van Rij 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

boxofbits Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Can't see anything particularly outstanding with it to be honest. Are the wing mirrors in different places? Is it my eyes, or is the car positioned at an angle. Don't like the orange side repeaters ( look tacky) and have seen better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

had17462 Posted December 14, 2014 Report Share Posted December 14, 2014 This belonged to a friends friend back in Wales, been told it's passed through two auction houses since the owners family sold it! Nick Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dykins Posted December 17, 2014 Report Share Posted December 17, 2014 (edited) I can remember seeing that car at Malvern several years ago. As it states in the advert its a one owner car from new. The elderly owner whom I remember wore a trilby in August, clearly loved his car and took great delight in telling me about the various shows he'd been to ...and yes the wing mirrors are positioned a bit skee whiff. Looks a bit tarted up for sale now. Edited December 17, 2014 by dykins Quote Link to post Share on other sites
