    I am surprised, I thought it would go higher than that.

    Silly time to end an auction though, Sunday evening is the best time in my view.

    I wonder if it will appear again or the seller will try his luck on another website?

    I would not be surprised if the highest or close to highest bidder will come to a deal with him.

    I think for the right buyer £14000 or £15000 or so would be a good guess. Very low mileage, if as described in garaged good condition. Who knows where all the 75 tourers are, I know of 3 more but thats it. All have significantly higher miles and arguable not so desirable colour as this one. Rogers duotone (although) done by mcnellie's can still be classed as a colour change from as born so will effect the price for a collector.

    If looked after, I am not sure it ever gets cheaper so cant see you will lose money.

    Nice car but that in my view is very wishful thinking. I would have guessed at £15k but at £20k the buyer could buy a lot of cars probably a lot more desirable.

    The response I received: 'I have now decided to keep it as it's rarer than I thought.(Actually 1 of 16 made , only 10 in this specification, and mine is the only one made in Nocturne blue) To change my mind it would need to be a rather substantial very special offer which I doubt you would want to pay.If you have a particularly robust bank balance then let me know as the reserve was £20,0000. If you are in this area fine, if not no matter as I'd prefer to keep it.......Just try and find another'

    What an odd response. If he didn't know it was rare when he put it up for sale, then why did he think he could get £20k for it when the reserve was set? The tone of his response is rather condescending I thought. Did the VIN number get recorded?

    Yes, I didn't think it was a polite tone either. I've always been the same - I can't buy a car off someone I don't like ...... stupid i know!
