Typical price for MightyBoys?
Sorry a bit off the subject but whats the going rate for a boy these days? cause i just payed $2500 for mine F5a auto straight as clean as and 110,000 k's + full rego and canopy and i thought i got a bargin, or did i get ripped off?
Thats about the going rate I would expect. An absolute pristine MB could go as high as $3500 or more, but for an average one $2000-$2500 is not out of the question.
I'm spoiled though I guess - having owned a total of 5 MB's at a total cost of about $800.

Picked up my green MB in practically showroom condition for $500. (Long story)
Bought another for $250 that had sideswiped a sign.
Bought the next one for $50 with some front end damage.
Picked up one for free from a golf course because they didn't want it any more. Nothing wrong with it besides some dents.
Scored the final one for free after doing some favours for a bloke's son.
Not bad hey!

Oh yes, I failed to mention that on top of buying my MB for $500 it passed rego first time and went 12 months without having to spend a dollar other than servicing and fuel.

Its not gloating when you consider after that initial 12 months it has probably cost me about 30 times the original purchase price so far - and still going.

Love or stupidity? There is a fine line.
