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? ![Question :?:](./images/smilies/icon_question.gif)

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.![Poking out tongue :P](./images/smilies/icon_tongue.gif)

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. ![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_mrgreen.gif)

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.
