262 General: - 262c

DOUGIE68 · Aug 6th, 2017, 23:27

I ve been looking for 262c for a while now and they seem to be a bit of a rare beast. Anybody here got one or know of one for sale? I cant even get a value on one so dont know what would be a reasonable price. Ive always liked the looks. opinions?

Look in the Press Releases section above, under 262 turns 40. As said, they are rare - there is currently one on ebay for a few thousand - but it is on a small island in the Med......
As for values, it all depends on condition, like most cars really. Total rebuild projects went for a few hundred a year or two ago, but at the other extreme nobody is going to give a fully restored one away when they have spent a few thousand on it, are they? Its just a question of keeping ones eyes and ears open, as the jungle telegraph plus all media systems leave magazine adverts cold.

You'll soon find out, especially if the roof to body join is rusting away under the vinyl. Good luck.
