Neon Green

anybody know what a 1991 neon green cab is worth ?

i heard that there were only ever 50 made / registered in the uk?

a guy i know is wanting to get rid, i'm going to go take a look at it tomorrow, from what it sounds its been left in a garage for the past 5 years or so...
i think it may be a genuine turd & if its worth saving i may be tempted..

any thoughts ideas ?

They're 4-pot cabs in a Marmite colour; one of those cases where "rare" doesn't immediately mean "valuable".

By all means, buy it if the seller's giving it away, but it's not really worth any more than a normal cab.

Neon green is indeed a very rare colour,you are correct in saying that only 50 RHD examples were built.

This alone,however,is not a good enough reason to buy.
Buy only on condition,a rusty neon green cabbie is just that!

Daimlerman likes rusty neon green cabs. He calls them "Donors"

whenever you see "classic" in an e30 for sale headline you can bet it has a matching price.i've seen many a well overpriced rot box [classic] one had structural mud flaps
