£25k for an MGF on Pistonheads
PH Ad
Have to say that regardless of spec I can't see it being worth £25k, although at the end of the day it's value is what someone will pay for it...

Re: £25k for an F
This is a very special F and I think in a few years time it could fetch 25k, but not at the moment. The cars been on sale off and on for about a year now with no takers, I just think its 5 years to early to get that sort of money for it.

Re: £25k for an F
Ah, the Supersports 2. This is a historic motorshow concept vehicle seen at Geneva in 1999 and in much MG Rover publicity material. It has provenance - and therefore it will always command a high price.
However, in the current depressed market, and with values of MGFs equivalent to the same price as the stereo you fitted to it, £25,000 may not be the price that it will currently sell at I think Andy is right - it will be worth that, but perhaps when the market has recovered, and when people start to realise the significance of our cars in British Motoring History... the last affordable, all-British designed and built roadster, and the first road-going British roadster with a mid-mounted engine, the last car to be fitted with Hydragas, and the first European car to be fitted with EPAS etc etc etc... It will become a classic. The only question is how many will be left by the time people cotton on to the fact.

Re: £25k for an F
For me, the car was taken too far away from the original to command the same value as it would have in that condition.
Historic yes, worth £25,000. Not a chance. I can literally buy 40F's for that.
