Nomad on Collecting Cars

[marcusjames]

As a disclaimer, I have no connection to Collecting Cars or this particular car.

Just thought I'd share the price this Nomad is attracting. It's currently at £58k, which will be £62k with commission. Seems high for a non S/C.

Agreed, especially as it has only been back to the factory for a service once in 3 years and compared to this 2019 s/c car with full history and Ohlins at £65k...

That's auctions for you... someone decided that it was worth £58K... and so that's what it'll sell for at least.

Reached £62,500, which is a good result. How much after fees have been removed?

Full disclosure I’m selling the yellow car on pistonheads but yes you should buy a s/c car (or get it fitted). I think with the long gearing and big tyres you need the s/c to make the Nomad the hooligan is should be.

I’ve been watching the cars going through CC as they approached me about listing my car on there. The car sold for £66,250 after fee’s which is more than I thought it would reach after the one in Spain failed to sell last week. Looking at their sold page this morning however it looks like they must have listed the Spanish one as a buy now option as it is showing as sold for £63,200 after fees.

I’ve not worked out how much over the new price those cars sold for but they’ve definitely sold for over the new price...

On CC the buyer pays 6% premium up to a max of £6k.

For Sale again - quick turn round of the Nomad as it was sold on Collecting Cars very recently: https://collectingcars.com/for-sale/2016-ariel-nomad-2

Bizarrely enough it was listed with 4500 miles first time round and now with only 4380 which, assuming the 4500 was an estimated mileage, would suggest the new owner did virtually no miles it it.

Sold for £54k. Bought for £62720 including fees, money spent at the factory, must be a £13k loss in a few months.

Why would you do that? Must have a compelling reason.
