Yellow Mk3 Interceptor - S.Devon

Post by Pymmie »

Recently a Yellow Mk3 popped up on the web in my town (Newton Abbot)

I had no idea there was a classic trader just two miles away - They have been

going for just over 3 years...

I had a look at the car on Saturday with a local enthusiast with a view to purchase.

I showed interest too, MOT history says it is RED ...

If you have seen it would be great to know what you think of it and how much it is worth - really ...

Many thanks

Know this car, local chap & checked it over for him, bought from a trader with a ton of faults, we sorted that & made it drivable.
The prev owner (elderly) bolted on those hideous mirrors, unreal, esp given the huge foot print of them & the fact the drivers has been fitted so far up the door skin!

You can not beat Yellow, as a colour, for an Interceptor :D :D

Ask someone that knows the cars- ask someone that knew this car.

Or shall I post a phot of it 2' in the air with me & Unc Dave & Uncle Dick wondering why it was swapped for a TD.

My dear fellows- please dial in to those that know, they can be of use & indeed have been since .......

The car is still for sale on EBay.

It’s condition would have changed since Tim looked at it.

I wrote a list of defects & problems I’m happy to share

privately.

So £28k is a good price? I find Interceptor prices hard to fathom, with many saying prices are fast rising, yet this car suggests not. I paid over 30 for mine 3 years ago with Andy at Appleyards saying it was a good price, mine is far from perfect. I wonder how much it is worth now.
