What does he mean about getting too old - at the rate I am going I will be retired before I finish mine lol Robin |
Looks nice :D Must sound great with that engine
|
hhmmmm, not seen that one before.
It'll be interested to see what price it goes for. I've been getting some insurance quotes and i'm not sure how to value my car? If it was stolen or a total loss (god forbid) and I commisioned Marlin to build me a replacement I think it would cost about £17,000 but a second owner Sportster never fetch anything like that value. What value have others used for insurance? |
I've got mine for 15k agreed value (PS MOC membership gets a you a discount at Adrian Flux)
I plan to put that up once it's painted depending on cost to 17 - 19. You're not insuring its second hand valve as you would with a normal car but an "agreed value" of what it would for you to replace / rebuild it. |
Early Sportster demonstrator for sale..............

look at all the space under the bonnet, you could fit a couple more cylinders in there at least :D

Marlin screwed up my hood length to luckily i asked them to fit the hood so I didnt have the problem of sending it back. Apparently the car length is governed by the door length Terry will probably ask you to measure your doors.

Incredible, Terry thinks it's a problem at their hood supplier.
|
And here is another early short wheel based Sportster for sale.

Perhaps your hood might fit that one?

There seems to be some awesome (gruesome) negative camber on those front wheels. Almost looks like they are laying down!
As Patrick says - very cheap for an SVA'd car. I wonder why..... Robin |

Number plate looks familiar? Wasn't this car in some of Marlin's brochures but in yellow? |
dunno, but the ali bonnet just doesn't work on it at all IMO.
|
I think its actually painted grey/silver. I agree - it doesn't look great with a pale colour.
Still thinking about keeping by bonnets "in the raw" as it were but with a dark colour for the coachwork. I am tending towards BRG now.... Robin |
I think if it were fully polished it might work quite well on a dark colour :)
