Any set of alloys would look better though.

I'm not a fan, they say halfords replacement for blob car to me, Volvo logo notwithstanding. Apologies to any readers who've purchased a set, but really....
I think the look okay certainly very 1985 looking to me

However the asking price (8k) is, IMHO, double what they could conceiveable get for it. And that's probably double again what it's cost them, including those godawful replacement hubcaps.

It is pretty though. The bits they show...
It may well be worth £8,000 in 6 years time when it qualifies as an historic vehicle, until then £4,000 to £5,000 would be right.

... looking back, it would seem that motor car sold for £4,300 last time, but I think the dealer that bought it had advertised it for more since then.

I think you're right Alan, seem to recall seeing it up for £5995 or maybe it was £5495, certainly a big uplift when he did nothing to it.

Something about the current bidding (£3600) suggests shill bidding or perhaps i'm just over-cynical.
