Vauxhall Signum......appreciating asset.
« on: 07 March 2019, 12:39:17 »

Last week WBAC valued the mighty 2007 Signum 2.8T at a paltry £400.

This week they have come to the conclusion it is in fact a future classic, and have raised their offer to £470.....an improvement of some 17.5%. :y

The sky is now the limit. :)

Yep, that's what they do. Give you a week to stew and then improve the offer. My astra went from £12500 to £13200 after a week.

I was offered £400 for my BMW.  They didn't come back with a second offer.  ::)

My little Black 1997 1.6 Irmy Tigra was valued at £90 from WBAC last time I checked, Local Scrap Man keeps putting stickers on it to contact Him and has offered £150 to take it away, and one of the Neighbors who keeps nagging me to sell it to him has upped he's offer to 900 quid now.

If my car is only worth a few hundred quid it would be worth it for the engine alone.

Put in a 'Sevenesque' kit car weighing around 500 KG it would make for a potent little beast.

250 BHP as stock, or an easy 300 BHP with a remap, would give it an excellent power to weight ratio.

Ah yes poor Lord Opti always wears his puzzled expression when the bonnet of his Signum comes up and in fact rumour has it, that it has become his default expression as it happens on a regular basis!  :)

'Twas a golf, of course, but Opti knew that. Paula Hamilton was very nice in her day.  :-*

We will soon be fitting my old 3.0l engine and manual box into a friend's MGB, which should be interesting!

At least it shouldn't be as nose heavy as it was when they shoved the straight six 3l lump into it and called it an MGC.
