Unfortunately she's now up for sale to fund another project :(

Needs must though unfortunately.

I've already sold my XPowers to Halifax Steve so standard exhausts will be back on the car as of next Monday when she will also sport a full 12 months MOT.

There is great debate on the pricing of 260s at present on here but I'm in no rush to sell as the other thing will wait and I think that the price is fair based on the condition of my car, however I'm open to sensible offers.

Good look with the sale Dave.

good luck with the sale Dave :cool:

[Big Dave]

Thanks chaps.

I've fully enjoyed my ownership of this fantastic car and if there was any way of keeping her I would but I need to satisfy another V8 urge and in the market for a V8 Defender at some point once she's sold....

[Roadsterstu]

Good luck. I'm really struggling at the moment to sell mine. Been up for sale since early August.

Good luck to everyone trying to sell just now, probably not the best time of the year to be selling which to most buyers will now be a weekend car.
I will be joining the beauty parade in the next few weeks/months but with a high miler (Now that will be fun!!)

[stevenw]

Yeah not the best time of year to sell,but there's always some buyers around.
Unfortunately waiting until next spring may incur additional costs or just not be an option

[Julianp]

Surprised to see you selling, Dave, but good luck with you new project. Your car is in lovely condition and really low miles, so it should make a great buy for someone.
Cheers,
Julian.

[Big Dave]

Thanks Julian.

How things can change in a matter of weeks!!!

Financially wise I'd love to keep hold of her but just can't stretch to another toy at the moment without having to sell.


Maybe we could meet up again next summer and I can show off the new project? Just waiting for the right one to come up for sale at the moment and as I've said I'm in no rush. :)

[Big Dave]

Now with 12 months MOT and standard backboxes. :)

[Big Dave]

Car again back up for sale.

I'm open to sensible offers on this. Had a very interested party who lives a stones throw from me but unfortunately his funds won't allow it until February so she's again available.

Well regrettably (for me) no 88 has now been provisionally sold today to John from Chesterfield (ZT954) on here. Deposit paid and collection in the next couple of weeks.

On the plus side I'm happy that she's going to a good home and i know John will look after her in the manner she's been accustomed to!!!

To say I'm gutted is an understatement but out with the old and in with the new as they say.

[Tim]

Congrats John and good luck for your next motor Dave

With the great debate about prices I'm happy with what I got but equally very sad to see the car go...

As you weren't in a rush to sell I'd expect it was close enough to what you we're willing to let her go for. Can only imagine how it feels to let go of the 260.

All the best and maybe one day you'll be back in the collective

Yeah trust me its not a nice feeling once you have a sale but Im not in a position to keep it and do my next project.

Somehow I don't think this will be the last time I own a 260 but we'll see :)
