Sadly far too many of the 32/42/GS and GT stock here in the UK is in poor condition.
Poor maintenance, poor parts availability, high prices of basic parts, cheep to enter but not to maintain, and missed maintenance etc just add to the issue.
I maintain my GS religiously even when my milage is at time only in double digits. Some will say that's a waste of money, but it is the only way you will maintain its perceived value and saleability... skimp and they loose more than you saved in the first place.
If my GS is worth >£20k I will be pleased but in todays cost of living crisis I doubt it. But then it's not for sale.
I'm also looking for a GT...and most of the sub £30k cars need c20% + of there 'value' spent agin to make them safe.
The one above was a higher mileage poorly maintained basic 4.2 at action... are we realy surprised it only made that much???
