Hi all, I just bought a LHD American Spec FD, it needs and engine and a respray, its all original and apart from paint its in very good condition, has sand coloured leather and sunroof, manual gearbox
Can anyone give some advice on what it might be worth back on the road, maybe Europe is a good market?
Hi Charlie
Well, its worth nothing, give it to me! ;)
Actually, its difficult to give you price for that. Central europe has some LHD´s on sale. And europe spec FD is different than US spec. However, all those LHD are wanted anyways, and there is not much them on europe...
Lets say that engine is rebuilded and car is painted, I would quess 15-20t â,¬ easy. Just rolling car with crappy paint would be worth 7-10t â,¬...
Just my quess. But if you check mobile.de car sale site, it would give you some direction...
Hope this helps :)
Ok thank you very much
So, you have to give it to mee ;)
Any pics?
Paint looks ok from a distance but there are lacquer bubbles all over and the roof is pink!

Ok, I see. But thats a normal problem with red color if it stands in sun...
Where and how did you get that car?
It came from the Isle of Man, I did a 600 mile round trip on Saturday to collect it
How did it get there??? :) Wow, 600 miles trip. Can I ask price you paid?
I think it had been imported from America by a car dealer there
It was less than £10,000 ;)
Dealer imported lhd to there??? Weird :)
Ok :) how much less? ;)
