FS 1984 STARION

Unmodified factory original with a genuine 87.000 klms with original owners hand book and factory supplied spare wheel.
Colour is Midland Gold Metallic.
I am the second owner of this car and have maintained it for the past 12 years.
This car is in amazing condition for its age (Absolutely No Rust) however some of the paint is showing its age.
Reason for selling is that I also own a 34 Ford Hot Rod & a Classic Holden which I drive at every opportunity and I commute to work on my Motor Bike so the Starion just sits in the shed.
Note" The older cars like this become the more valuable they are as is verified by my other vechicles.
NO TIME WASTERS - P.O.A.

FYI the price last time I enquired was around the $12,000 mark.

WOW I think a little over priced if it is $12,000. Granted it might be an immaculate example, but still, thats very expensive when you can get a widebody for not too much more.

Good Luck with the sale, but I don't know if anyone around here is that keen on spending that much.

you've seen this car i believe, it is the super awesome condition gold one that was on our 22 car cruise, he was at my workshop, parked on the other side of the road..

best original starion in australia i'd say. be very surprised if there are any better. it had only 68K until a couple of years ago, and is worth the price he's asking.... to the right person.

No trying to be an ass here but this sort of thing annoys me - It doesn't help at all.

Wasn't trying to bring price down, I did say good luck to him. It is just it might be hard for him to get what he is asking for that staz off anyone on the forums.
Which car was it dave? Would like to look back at my pics for it.

I hope he sells the car for what he is asking as it means we might have more hope in eventually getting what we all believe our cars are worth. I was just meaning it might be over priced to people who don't know our cars for what they are.

Again mate good luck with the sale.

To all those making assumptions about the asking price of MY starion, you are well off the mark. $12.000 IS NOT what I'm asking it is well below that . If you want the correct figure email me direct. Freds_shed@bigpond.com
