Hey, thats like my old car, except I didn't have a 240K 'GT' !

On the topic of 240K prices, I had an interesting chat to a guy last week and he know's of people buying these cars, slightly restoring them to original condition and shipping them off from Oz to the Middle East from between $15,000 - $25,000 a pop!!! He reckons mine would fetch $15K easy, in current condition. Apparently they, like us enthusiasts, regard these cars very highly and will pay top dollar (may be not top $ for some of the oil sheiks ). The 240K's/Skylines C110 are considered cars of prestige and high class for these fellas, I guess in a way it's heartening to know that others also appreciate a fine, but far too often under-rated car.

Adding fuel to the fire I had 4 emails/different guys from Kuwait wanting to buy my coupe I advertised last year, one as recently as last Thursday!

I definitely will not be selling this time though, way too rare nowadays...

Hey (The C110) how much do you think shipping a car overseas would cost though?

[The C110]

Probably at least a couple of thou... My parents just recently shipped a home's worth of furniture and belongings to the middle east [dubai] and that was up around the $2k mark, so i imagine a car would be a similar ask...

English money is pounds, and my brother had some buyer who was going to buy his old Peugeot for similarly crazy money. Guess what, the cheque bounced. Scamtastic. If something looks too good to be true, it usually is!!
