im thinking about & keen to buy back my EB S XR8 that i had. Some of you may remember it, Was a series 1, 5 speed & black.
Reason im asking if i should or shouldnt is i have a Mitsubishi challenger 4x4 now, and as much as i love that car too, me and the mrs havent used it that much for 4x4 work, its a lot heavier on fuel than the XR8 was too plus i miss having a manual V8! When i sold it the firewall had cracked, the gearbox had gone in it plus a few other issues i never got around to fixing and id gotten the ***** with it and sold it to one of my best mates. After i sold it, my mate fixed all the firewall, strengthened it, rebuilt and strengthed the pedelbox, rebuilt the brakes, new exhaust, fixed the rooflining, fixed all the wiring issues and put in new wheel bearings plus rebuilt the gearbox too.... he then sold it not long after doing all that work (his mrs wasnt happy at all!) and they, like me, miss that car BIG TIME!! Anyway, long story short, the guy my mate sold the car to is his workmates son in law and has talked about selling it again, to which im keen to buy it back... my mate sold it for $3500 (with 12months rego), so i said to my mate to get hold of the bloke again and let him know id look at paying the same, maybe 3K cash without rego (registered in NSW, has to be cancelled anyway). I know its a bloody good car, its like new now after all the work done to it), i wish id kept it and would love to have it back, but is 3k a good price, or what would you pay for it if you were to make an offer? cheers
