Not to me, but... whatever someone is willing to pay.

A pristine Mk1 Golf GTI is heading towards £20k these days...

You should be able to get these for under €.100,00 in a normal condition.

I think you could buy a parts car for that money .. £39.99 seems fair :-)

you should see some of the classic ford parts prices. uncracked mk1 sierra (ie rs500 and 3 door cosworth) dashboard? £700-£1000 last I checked!!!
but then an rs500 just sold for £100,000 and a series 1 rs turbo just fetched over £60,000!
10 years ago both cars together would have cost £20,000, not a bad investment.

Someone has sold it off eBay, then hiked the price to stop people buying. Cancelling listings isn't good for your seller rating

It has now been reduced to £299.99 from £399.99.... What a bargain..
I guess they still have it to lower the price?

The same with the early wolfsberg wheel back in the late 90's I went to a vw breakers which must of had 30 of them lined up on a shelf and selling them for £20, I already had one fitted to my Mk1 Scirocco as I did not need one.... Oh how I wished I bought a couple and keep them safe...
