I don't mind brutal honest answers here, but I am struggling to put a price on a:




2007 Haynes Roadster Fireblade. Full details can be found within the forum.




It is highly likely that I will be selling in Spring (April/May) and not sure how much "capital" it will release for new "projects" ;)
It is a bit hard to compare with other kits but it is fairly unique at present and a little bit of history. Not sure if that adds value though.
It may end up going in to storage as an alternative option.

honnestly tim when are you going to get it into your head that a z cars mini is not as good as a roadster........ only kidding......but the roadster IS better lol

5k + without a shadow,
these cars are the business, i've been passenger in a few others and compared them to my drive and they are not a patch. Don't undersell yourself.....
5k++++

i would be looking for 5-6k. bike engine cars will always fetch a bit of a premium.

And near lethal in snow Tim?

I only saw this car last Sunday and it is immaculate! Got to be 5K+ but definitely a warm and dry weather car.

Got to be worth way over 5k Tim

You have a quite unique Roadster there :cool:

Don't forget, you have a full MK factory built chassis there ... That's got to be a real selling point ;)

I saw the car at Exeter when it first went on the road & again at Stoneleigh last May ....... Still looking great :) :)

Your car is, apart from the fact its a very nice car indeed, its part of the future history of the Roadster marque being the number 2 car, but first to be built & owned after the "Book Car" that Haynes has got locked away somewhere, & i suppose that makes it very hard to put a price on its worth.

As a car alone without its history it surely must be worth £5k plus .

whatever your future plans actually are..........put the car into storage or take it with you :cool:

i too had the pleasure of a spin in the car at Stoneleigh, awesome:cool:

cheers
