When I had it I was reluctant to sell it publically as it had a running problem(fuel) and osmosis all over. Since then its had a full pro 2k respray, not aware if he's sorted the running problem though, haven't spoken to him for a couple of years..

Despite their rarity, I really don't think there is much justification for A610s being much over 10K.... When you look at what else yuou can get for the money: Jaguar XK8, Audi TT, SLK, the list goes on... Why would the average car buyer want a 14 year old car based on a 22 year old design, with a reputation for fallible electrics, with typically 100000+miles...

I can see what your saying but for me none of those cars compare other than the price range

I have to agree with Rupert ,they aren't going to fetch the sort of money you think they're worth .A really good GTA is 5k and a 610's not worth double that .You have to accept there's no market for them at present :(

End of the day it all depends what people want. We could say a Lemans is just a GTA with a bodykit but they still command 10-14k..but even logic says why buy a GTA at 5k, when there are newer, more capable Skylines for instance at 3-5k.

I compare the 610 to something like the Porsche 968, and these still command over 10k...

Horses for courses.. :wink:

You will sell it eventually, there just isn't a "Quick Sale" when it comes to selling these cars unless your very lucky.

Orbut - Advertise it on this site, someone will buy it in the end, just run and enjoy for the time being :D

I bought my alpine for the same reason most of you guys did, rarity, you just don't see them on the roads anymore and I love to be different!

I could not agree more who wants an Audi TT Blah Blah Blah I love my 21 too for that very reason, and even more so because they go a lot quicker than you would imagine. Talking of 21's Orbut hows things not that great on the car front by the sounds of things; well look on the Bright Side at least if you do sell it you can pick up a reasonable 21 Turbo for £600 notes LOL :wink:

Not quite the same in the looks status, but you can see the outside when your driving it LOL :wink:
