Good man 82!!!

In terms of value, it's a tough one, we'd all like to say 12k but in reality, one owner, early VIN, low mileage - perhaps £8 to £10K to a collector

Thanks for your input, i was thinking a specialist would put it up for £8K but i suppose it depends how optomistic/greedy they are, i cant make my mind up what to do with it, ive known it from new and i know if i just sell it i may regret it one day as i dont think i`l ever have another one never mind one with this history, i would imagine prices have just about bottomed out now so a decent one should be fairly depreciation free and may even rise in value in the future, im in no rush so we`l see. In the meantime if there is anyone seriously looking for a car like this feel free to pm me.

Cheers.

Used it today and whilst i think its a pretty awsome driving/sounding thing ive got mixed feelings as i think it would be a shame to use it on a daily basis, at the moment its quite a special umollested/pampered car thats led a sheltered life, if i used it how long would it be before it just turned into an average example.

It's quite similar to the one that a trader sold on PH recently - here's the thread on this forum. That was an Mk1 SE model, VIN #035 that was up for £5,995.

That was priced to sell though (you don't sound so sure you want to sell it )

For £8K, people will be looking for something a bit newer like this one.

If and when i did decide 100% i would not need anywhere near £8K for it, i can say with confidence it would be competively priced, i think its got more to do with having known the car from day one thats keeps making me think i should stash it away somewhere for the future.

You mention people may be looking for something a bit newer, ive usually found as cars get older and start to get a classic/cult status you usually find enthusiasts tend to get more excited about the earlier examples of the marque, purest of the model so to speak, ive already noticed a difference of opinion on the net regarding the version to have.

Thanks for all the input and keep it coming im keen to know as much as i can about these Q cars.

Cheers

Id be tempted to keep it. Wouldn't worry about it being a daily driver, the only thing you'll need to keep on top of it stone chips and minding the kerbs. The running gear of the car shouldn't give any greif using it all the time.

Mines my daily driver (only car) and glad i moved from my ZT V6 to this, wouldn't dream of going back
