I'm trying to decide if this is good value for a really nice example or just plain expensive

I’d say that it’s nowhere near good value, and the fact you can’t find another, means you’ve nothing to compare it to, and it’s a sellers market with this particular one.

IMHO Low mileage cars are just as troublesome as high mileage, you want one that has been used regularly and well maintained, not one that has either sat about for months on end going nowhere, or worse, one that has been driven 3 miles a day and never even got warm... Pete

I saw the 5s/c on the ebay thread earlier and I'd agree that is a much better deal assuming both stack up.

It's not always about 'value for money', gut feeling is something I nearly always go with, at first sight I thought this was expensive....but.....looking at the colour, stance & general 'buy me' look....is it really overpriced?

I paid 10k for my 56 4.2SC in Westminster Blue in 2017. Alright it had more miles (120k ish). Back when I was looking for mine, they were around 10-15k. Not sure what the market rate is for them at the moment but I would have thought lower |

As always, the value of something is what someone else is prepared to pay for it. When all is said and done you have to make a decision about whether for you the price is what you are prepared to pay for it. As has been mentioned before, you're a long time dead and you can't take the money with you 2011 TDV8 Vogue SE |

Looking at the MOT history it's only done 4k miles in the past three years and before that around 3k miles p.a. so maybe lots of short journeys?

Nice one. I recon my 4.4 TDV8 should be worth at least £32k then....
