what would my moonland tubby be worth, 2006,within last 100 made,only 9988 miles on clock,im 2nd owner,very good condition,standard bar milltek backbox?


Not many of us moonland owners about i think only 76 were made so they are very rare yours like mine is a standard low mileage 2 owner only. mine is a 54 plate with 29K miles and has never been on track either. I would want a minimum of £13K but i have no intention of selling

we are a rare bread haha,thats a good price,but yeah i doubt id sell too, ive only done like 400 miles in a whole year too!

Lol, by comparison my Moonland could be:- Dr. Strangerust - Or how I learned to stop worrying and stamp the accelerator.

I have a mint VX but only managed 500 miles this year. Like someone else said on here, the cars are at least 6 years old. Why don't you get a VGC one and spend some time doing it up to mint? I purchased mine from a Lotus dealer and have spent the last 6 months replacing bolts, shocks, brake discs, pads, exhaust, heater, silicone pipes, hardtop, carbon interior, polished it up for a week and now it it is minter than mint. Well pleased with it but not selling. You do have a good feeling when someone comments and says your car is like new. Ps good luck finding one.

12k is my max, which when you look at what other cars are currently selling for its quite strong, especially seeing winter is approaching. To be fair I've been watching what cars are selling for on here, ebay etc and wounder just how much of a hit I would take if I ever tried to sell the right car on to its next owner.......

The right buyers are out there looking for the right car so I wouldn't let this sway you. There will always be people like you out there for you to sell on to. Mine will be up for sale in the next 6 months due to not being used, seems a shame to keep her locked away when someone else can have fun like I used to. I'm not in a hurry and don't need to sell her so will be waiting for the right buyer. She's a coral blue turbo (04) with 22k on the clock and an OEM colour coded hardtop along with some subtle mods that make it look standard (exhaust, remap - stage 1, brake pads etc) but I will be asking for more than your budget. :happy:

Be warned.


I know, I know, she's just not being used, I had her serviced in June and haven't driven her since. It's been a hard decision and taken me over a year to think about let alone decide. As I've said I don't need to sell but feel she's wasted sat there. I will see how things progress but I won't be letting her go for silly money that's for sure.

Will keep you updated

Nick
