Plenty of post 2000 junk getting posted on this board these days - at least this has some pedigree and although registered 2001 would have likely been pre 2000 manufacture. I saw that a week or so back and thought that it was cheap for a what looks like a well built and finished Ultima with a good specification. Especially compared to what is being asked for a PilGRIM Cobra replica with a tame Rover V8 these days.  Although some better gauges and switches could have been used - STACK for example - I have those VDO's in My Gemini. |

Wow.
Ok, here's a random question.
Assuming one (not me) could afford a car like this, but could only afford one car to run as a daily and noting 24k a year.....
How long would a car like this last as a daily driver, could it even be used as a daily driver?

This would be a rare posing-day-out and rare track-day car probably seeing 10 to 20 days use a year on specialist insurance. The garage at the bottom of the street isn't going to be up to the maintenance either!* If you live out in the sticks and your nearest takeaway doesn't deliver at least you should get your pizza back home while it was still warm. *Postcode dependent. |

I would suggest that the indicated mileage of 1200 miles for a 19 year old car gives the game away on that score.
Its a collection car - its in there with your dozen other race and classic specialist cars. None of which you ever have the time to use.
