On Saturday Left the coupe at garage for wheel alignment, and when I went back a macanic in his thirties offered me £1000 for my blue plus,I burst out laughing but he was deadly serious.i could have punched him in the face cheeky bugger for offering such a low price,I asked him if he knew the car ?? Surprise surprise he has no knowledge of the coupe.

Lol, it's nice that people from the motor trade background are keen on the coupe.

He was hoping you knew nothing about coupes.
I wouldn't of laughed.

I couldn't help but laugh,I think I was in shock with the £1000 offer

Must have thought it was an N/A.

It will be the NA that's going to be worth the real money eventually.

I get the feeling that no coupe will ever be worth much as it does not have that desirable image that attracts collectors. A car has to be worth more than restoration costs to start becoming a viable investment. The Coupe is a long long way away from that.

I was being flippant, but I think you're being crazy!

Sierra Cosworth is cheaper than a 2.0 Sierra Ghia or a classic 911 Turbo is cheaper than it's NA counter part?
I've never seen a slower / smaller engined version of the same car being worth more than it's counter parts.
