Wildly optimistic!

Was browsing the classifieds for another old P-car project and spotted this.

With an asking price of €35,000 with only 141,00km and almost 20 years old I can honestly say that it represents an ABSOLUTE BARGAIN!

Some people are so optimistic/entitled/deluded/desperate/completely out of touch or all of the aforementioned it's ludicrous!
I messaged to ask if he had mistakenly added a 0 to the asking price and his reply: 'Non, c'est juste'.

Well, if you don't ask you don't get. If it sells, kudos to the seller

Maybe it's actually me that's deluded, out of touch. Values seem to be on the ridiculously high side in Belgiumland for some reason. Not that I'm looking for a Boxster mind. I was sure you could pick up an old Boxster for around 5 gwand not so long ago.

It's you matey.
Do you not know that as soon as a car reaches 20 years old it becomes officially a 'classic', which means doubling the asking price instantly? He is pre-empting the status, as he won't sell it until at least next year!

And yes, early gen 1 Boxsters with a few miles were fetching around £3-4k a few years ago.
