It does seem like about double what I would expect price wise. At that kind of price you expect more than only exterior photos

£10k?? That is madness.

I didn't pay anywhere near that for mine and it had 109k miles on it when I got it. That was 3 months ago. Absolutely absurd pricing.

I will also admit that I didn't even know they came in gold. That properly Grandad spec.

He’s going to have that for sale for a long time at that price! Surely that’s £1,500 max and that’s it!

Who wants a big 3 litre auto car, 22 years old doing under 20mpg these days for £10k?! Not many I’ll bet!
