    If he has the parts to finish it like front and rear bumper and back lights and what ever else is missing it's not too bad I suppose.

    But you can just buy one that’s fine for that.

    Also, it’s a 5 door, nobody wants those.

    16k? You'd definitely get into a Mk7 for that.

    It is apparently an Edition 35 which would ad a few euro onto the price.

    Photos are shocking though.

    Edit: Ed35 on piston heads for 9,500 Sterling with similar spec which would be about 11k I'm Euro.
    VRT 3,500 (according to ad) so that's about 14.5k.

    Defo a but overpriced but not too far off

    What if one of the co-owners refuses to hand over the car or crashes it or won't pay share for big repair bill?

    I haven't even seen a picture of a TR7 in donkey's years!

    When I was a kid, the most treasured possessions in my toy car collection were a white TR7 and a blue Fiat X1/9.
    I still harbour notions of buying an X1/9 at some stage.

    If you can't afford an exotic car, you definitely can't afford the repairs. Maintenance would be a huge cost too. I think a lot of these classics have out of date tyre sizes too and usually the manufacturers do limited runs.

    I wouldn't go halves with my best friend, nevermind a dozen randomers!

    Want to be nuts buying into a car share like this. There would be murder over it.

    No Guard I don't own that kilo bag of white powder you just found in the glove box and all over my face. It must belong to one of the other 16 loonies who bought into this Eyetalian sportscar

    Looks nice and its obviously well looked after, but is it worth €3500?

    No, not worth the colour of it.

    That said it looks lovely for a 5dr hatch.

    €5k surely buys ya a middling 20v
    €2-3k should get a 1.6si or 1.8gxi rougher ones being cheaper.

    So surely no one could justify giving similar or more for the least desirable model of the e10 no matter how nice it is.

    I know a lot was spent on 20v parts but at the end of the day it still has the wrong engine and it would probably cost the same to insure that as a genuine 20v. I know a fair few years ago reps were popular to drive as they were cheaper to insure.

    I honestly think a clean, solid shell would sell better than a genuine 20V with just alright shell these days.
    Someone will pay that money and put a place top in it.

    1 owner car from new

    3 owners on it.

    Also, it’s a base model 1.3 - not even the fanboys are gonna pay that for it.

    A good fx-gt isnt to far off 10k these days, if you can find one. I thought 2k at a push maybe 2.5k would be enough for that corolla
