I have been approached by the vendor.
Having met Steve and his car at the "St.Mary's Motor Show" in Braintree last Sept. I can attest that this car really is as good as it looks!

Very very nice.

I'm sure it'll find a good home in due course.

Certainly high end price for any 300, but looks to be a very nice original car, unusual colour too. Rarity value of good unmolested cars is starting to increase prices maybe? For that money 'no rust at all' is a must (and I mean no rust!). At that mileage, garaging and little or no winter use, it's just about possible, especially with a later year like that.

Hope this one gets to keep it's interior, should do at anywhere near that price!

Surely someone must be interested in this car!

Owner will take £1475 which has to be fair for such a nice, on the road example.

I have had a good look at this car and if I didn't already have 2 300s I would have bought this myself.

Steve wants to move it on - so lets try to keep it in the family!

Ok. Steve has had no interest at all, he needs the space and will now accept £995

I know Foggy thinks we "have too many of them" but com'on it HAS to worth that!

No rot, T&T, FSH, 34k, GLE,

If you can't find a buyer for a 300 on a 300 forum - I honestly don't know why I even bother.

Now I was thinking when you first posted this... "for a grand that would be a good deal"

Now it is a grand, that is a good deal. Someone get it bought :)

My premises (and part of some relatives premises) are already full of good deals :P I'm out of the running.

If this was in a years time I'd take it for Evan to have as his first car, so if Steve can wait a year........?

Buying it now and storing it (my only spaces are outside) won't really do justice to it, and given I have 2 cars already I'm not sure it'd get the use it needs. If it needed a bit of fettling I could take it and let Evan spend the time tidying it up, but as it's so good it'll just sit there.
