DB18 Empress

Post by New Dexter »

There is a DB18 Empress for sale near Rotherham. It was dismantled by a previous owner and the engine stripped to the last component. Unfortunately some of the engine parts were lost and the seller has put a Conquest Century into it. He says it's a beautiful car and the engine runs perfectly. I forgot to write down the price but it was around the £4600 mark.

01709 867 540.

Is there not a nought missing? - seems very cheap.
Is that the number to call? and do you have his name?

The telephone number I gave is the number given by the seller. 01709 is Rotherham's code. Rotherham is in Yorkshire, the one on eBay appears to be in Leighton Buzzard, Bedfordshire. LU7 is the postcode for that town.
As for the price? If a nought were missing it would be 46000 which might be expensive. the price I was given was £4600 or £4700

£4600 might be a fair price. It has a engine which we are told runs well. We are told it's a beautiful car. We are not told what condition the car body, interior and chrome is in.
£4600 is about the going price for a car in need of restoration. £46000 would need to be something amazing given that the rare 3 litre 2 door Empress was a little short of that value recently.
