Lewis Posted June 14, 2006 Share Posted June 14, 2006 Honestly, with the state of TT prices at the moment I wthink you will REALLY struggle to sell it, more so as a CAT-C, it puts people off. No two ways about it I'm afraid. I would think twice before I parted with 7.5 for it. Just my opinion though and just because I wouldn't the asking price for it, doesn't mean that nobody would. It's worth what people will pay at the end of the day bud. Good luck selling it anyway mate, I hope you get what you want for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
