mrmustang Posted September 21, 2014 Share Posted September 21, 2014 (edited) Someone is selling the 05 that was recently sold.

Personally, I'd never trust a seller who has to illegally shill is own auctions in an attempt to "make his market".

Croc Posted September 21, 2014 Author Share Posted September 21, 2014 Its 4.30am and I cannot sleep as my foot is punishing me for doing many bad things on it yesterday (e.g. walking). So I might as well have a mug of tea and prowl the car ads. Three Caterhams on Ebay right now - the 2005 crossflow Caterham that has been awarded recognition by Mr Mustang as Shiller of the Month is on there. But there are 2 others: 1992 Caterham 1800cc crossflow. States that it is no reserve and then does a starting bid of $25500. I suppose that is one way to make reserve! This ad is confusing - it says the car is in BC Canada as well as stating it is in the US. I guess he is using a US Ebay ad to pull in possible US buyers. Although as it is a 1992 it would not be eligible for import to the USA. Canadian buyers preferred I guess? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lotus-Super-Seven-Super-7-Sprint-1992-caterham-lotus-super-seven-sprint-1800-dedion-no-reserve-/111466895696?forcerrptr=true&hash=item19f3f1d950&item=111466895696&pt=US_Cars_Trucks Next up in the confusing ad stakes is a 1973 Lotus Seven S3. Except it is not - it then states it is a first year Caterham. Same car but will people pay a premium for Lotus over Caterham? 13500 miles. Lovely looking car although I never did like the fairing on the roll cage around those years. Twin cam with 4 speed box. 94 watchers on Ebay so it is popular. Buy it now is $34990. Not sure about some of the claims - matching numbers? Never tracked? Being sold by AutoKennel which will have meaning for some. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lotus-Super-Seven-Caterham-S3-1973-super-7-2-owners-13-k-orig-mi-surviovr-s-match-twin-cam-big-valve-/331319785063?forcerrptr=true&hash=item4d2432b667&item=331319785063&pt=US_Cars_Trucks Same ad on Craigslist http://orangecounty.craigslist.org/ctd/4667830013.html 2013 Birkin with IRS and Duratec and 5 speed T9 gearbox. Previously listed on this thread. Nice spec and nice looking car. 650 miles $38629 Buy it now. Starting bid is $35600. Lots of negotiation room there.... http://www.ebay.com/itm/Replica-Kit-Makes-Lotus-Seven-Birkin-S3-S3-2013-lotus-seven-birkin-s-3-2-0-duratec-irs-profesionally-/151414204962?forcerrptr=true&hash=item2340fd6a22&item=151414204962&pt=US_Cars_Trucks 1992 Westfield Seight asking $6.49. Yes $6.49 - thats all canoes are worth these days :jester: Actually it is a nice brochure thing for the man cave. http://www.ebay.com/itm/1992-WESTFIELD-SEIGHT-ROADSTER-UNIQUE-IMP-BROCHURE-/371140401313?pt=Motors_Manuals_Literature&hash=item5669b118a1&vxp=mtr A repeat visitor. 2013 Caterham CSR. F1 Team paint scheme. $84500. Brand new and registered SB100 in CA. Probably a good discount over anything being offered new by Caterham USA these days. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/cto/4674645186.html 2001 Caterham in white with red stripe. Repeat visitor. $38500. Located in the same workshop as the CSR above. Registered SB100 in CA with 500 miles and brand new. I guess this was a unbuilt kit now finally finished off? 2L Zetec with 5 speed. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/cto/4673444165.html A previously shown on here Superformance S1. 2002. 10700 miles 2L Zetec. $25000 in Ohio. http://columbus.craigslist.org/cto/4612673374.html A lesson in how not to advertise a car - no photos! Hard to judge the price without photos! Here is the ad: 1960's Lotus Seven 7 clone - $4450 (Cullman) title status : clean ..this is an early Seven clone that came from one of the SouthEast Auto Museums .. I stripped the chassis to bare metal and have repainted and re assembled it. The Kent motor and transmission are not with the car, and there are many choices of vintage and current motor options, depending on your preferences.... Body panels are readily available This is a good opportunity if you have always wanted to complete one of these super quick cars for street or track age shown is approximate, and it is a clone , not a true LOTUS http://huntsville.craigslist.org/cto/4672068031.html Locost chassis seven project asking $750. Needs some work, some parts, some labor, liquid courage.... http://sanantonio.craigslist.org/cto/4648024366.html Another what looks to be Locost seven project. Advanced rolling stage. Lots of good quality parts listed. 350z engine with 6 speed which is a really interesting choice. Obviously would still need a lot of work to bring it to perfection. Located in AZ $6000 http://phoenix.craigslist.org/evl/cto/4670225707.html Locost rolling chassis (barely...) in Seattle for $1200 http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/cto/4669338182.html No Stalkers this week and it looks like the Craigslist ad for the Honolulu car has finally expired - not sure if that means sold.

Very old looking. Rough. In some "museum" donated but not wanted, by them. Maybe bought cheap by someone for the engine/gearbox? I can't remember the asking price (with engine), but I don't think it was more that now, without. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yellowss7 Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Shane, the wild man with the broken foot, was at the track this weekend, and although he professed that he would drive slow enough that he didn't need to brake, the red mist took hold and he was flying around the track like a mad man. I'm sure he's having trouble getting to the computer as his foot is probably swollen to the size of a bowling ball. :ack::smash::smash::smash: That should get a response.

Croc Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 Yes - I take the heat fairly. :banghead: I should not have driven on track on Saturday...well.....the red mist should not have descended and I should have taken it easy in the CSR after the clutch went boom in the maroon Caterham but I was determined to lap everyone a few times over in my session.... My foot was paying me back yesterday and today - I was in agony. It did swell up badly by yesterday evening. For those that dont know I managed to fall at home and make 14 breaks in 10 bones in my right foot. :ack: I will go looking for cars for Shane shortly. :seeya: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
