Default Jeremy's Ford GT for sale now!

I guess he has chosen not to take Ford up on the buy back offer

For sale @ :arrow: www.romansinternational.co.uk

2005 Ford GT £179,000

Blue with black leather. Unique opportunity to own 1 of the 28 UK registered Ford GT's. Used to belong to Jeremy Clarkson until he got sick of the cruddy alarm system that kept going off for no reason.

YUes - please do... and find out exactly how they justify this offer:

2004 mustang £31,000
The pics for that car don't show up. And quite which 2004 Mustang is worth $31,000 let alone £31,000 is rather intriguing.

Don't think so :roll: I just think that the GT was too hardcore for him

Missed your post.

I remember your pics tho. They seem to have a great stock constantly. A DB9 Volante, Enzo, Murcie roadster etc... these guys are the shit at buying popular cars and whacking £30k on top of list

Please do go and visit again 8)

They sell Vettes for way more than they're worth over there as well, due to importing them unofficially I suppose. Nobody in their right mind should pay that much for a Mustang, though, unless it's had its engine, suspension, and body completely changed

Damn right. I nearly quit my job to start full-time importing US cars to the UK a few months back when it was $1.95 to 1GBP.

Alas, I don't have the UK contacts, marketing plans nor the capital to do it in earnest...well I have a bit of capital, but not enough to tie up in 3 or 4 vehicles at once to support this type of business. :cry:

One day, one day...
