Just got my hands on the latest UNIQUE cars value guide which is always an interesting read.

Some surprises here :

Based on sales of certain cars, they've assesed each car on information supplied by owners,specialised dealers,vehicle valuers and auction / insurance houses.

Here's a sample

Based on number of examples sold in brackets they have valued the following : Obviously the greater number of sales gives a better average.

Ford XD ESP V8 (7 sales ) $8,300
Ford XE ESP V8 ( 17 sales ) $17,250 ( GO THE XE ESP.... )

Ford XR8 EB (24 sales) $9,295
Ford XR8 ED(10 sales) $13,930
Ford XR8 ED Sprint (13 sales) $20,575
Ford XR8 EF (32 sales) $15,585

Ford EB GT (12 sales) $35,200
Ford EL GT (7 sales) $32,135

GTHO Phase III (4sales) $133,750

XB Goss Special (7 sales) $15,895

XY GT Import Sth Africa (6 sales) $16,165
XY GT Replica (58 sales) $14,580 - My god.........it's got its own category !!!

XY GT (14 sales) $46,325

And there's tonnes more

The values in the book are based on averages different conditions and ACTUAL sale price so there will of course be some variances.............but on the whole it seems to be pretty accurate.

XA GT sedan - 10 sales $18,595
XA GT Hardtop - 4 sales $18,600
XB GT sedan - 23 sales $14,170
XB GT Hardtop - 6 sales $15,015

Seems pretty accurate to me. What I want to know is where did those 7 John Goss Specials come from & why don't I have their details in the registry :)

Hi Mark it is a XB GT.

Good to see the XE ESP jump up in price as they are a very rare and sorted car who knows it could be the next rarest Aust Ford range.

I still reckon the VG Pacer is worth much more than what the book quotes.
Cheers Alex.

I thought it was a pretty good guide, it's worth having the commentary as well rather than just condition A, B & C prices like you often see. From what I could see the prices quoted look to be pretty on-the-ball too.

I am off to the newsagent.

I remember reading in a street machine magazine years ago about their predictions on desirable cars. They said the esp's were worth a second look.

I wonder if Ford hadnt brought out the new GT's and XR8's what the price of the old GT's would be? Did these new cars create new interest in the older ones and force up the price or do they slow the price rising by providing an alternative.

According to Australian Muscle car mag (good read btw) they reckon it did. That was from speaking to a Ford rep.

I'm sure its pretty safe to say that the GT's, especially the HO's have been gaining in price for a while.

Got a figure on a EL Series 2 XR8? Manual?
