Finished Tribute Kobra On Ebay - Page 4

I think the Tribute kits are the way forward . They might only be "inspired by " replicas like the Kobra , 250 SWB etc but most of the mainstream kits are only that when you look under the skin.
Why would you want a Cobra based around the running gear of an old Cortina or Siearra ? I would rather have one based on a modern car with proven chassis , engine and suspension etc etc. I don't mind if it looks a little different , I want an individual car anyway. I would rather not go through the stress of an IVA test either so the Tribute way is the best.

Whats happend to this car again? Its off ebay? Did it sell?

Its still there Danny - I just checked its at £ 5,700.00 at the moment. It finishes tomorrow at 19.20 - I hope he gets more than this as it must have cost him at least that to get it to that stage.

Correction , it ends at 7.20pm tonight . Looks very cheap at £5700 at the moment , time to grab a bargain !

£5,900! Seems cheap. My kobra will be going up for sale in a few weeks to pay for a new house. My reserve will be a lot higher than that.

Ebay seems to be very strange at the moment , it might be the time of year.
Some of the other items I have been watching fell well short on bids to end very low. I don't think the seller will have even got his money back.
Perhaps listed as a classified ad with best offer would have been better.

Pity about the finished purchase price, I would have thought around 7-8k would have been nearer the mark.

Luck of the draw with ebay , someone got a bargain ! I agree , £7 - £8k would be what you would expect. How many well build and finished Cobra kits do you see sell for under £6k , none .

Hey Danny. let us know when you are going to put it online, i would be very interested to see how much yours goes for - hopefully a lot more than 6k.
