I don't think that was stolen. It is the right price possibly even a strong price IMHO. A private sale on a car that will need a clutch soon.

I sold mine recently with a few more miles at a few k less.

There are plenty of V8 Vantage examples around. I see these dropping to low 20's and you might even start to see a V8 Vantage starting with a 1 in the next year or two.

It’s about perspective ....
When I was looking for a 4200 about 4 years ago, this kind of example ( low end of what was floating about)was pulling low 30.s.....
You can sit on yer hands or dissect the market all you like - it’s a lot of car for under £27K

Thing is it will need a clutch so will be a £30k car at that point pretty much. I reckon you could buy one soon at £25k with a recent clutch so you can easily get a £5k and more swing on some of these cars.

Check on tyres, brakes and a service being needed or not and you have another £3k or more swing possibly.

At £27k that’s pretty much on the money for a 2007 4.3. Nice looking car though - it’s a member on the Vantage FB page.

I traded a V8V in Meteorite and Obsidian for about £27k 3 years ago (was on similar mileage and original clutch), so I'd say it's a good price for a private sale.

Doesn't seem expensive does it? Unless massive late surge.

Long thought I’d like to own one of these. Targa spec specifically. I usually come to my senses as I baulk at lurid interiors but this is lovely IMO!
Seems a quite modest estimate... Perhaps they have dropped in value in recent market turbulence....
Nuts aesthetics....:broke:
