There was a 2001 classic shaped one for sale a while ago for about 17k. Probably wasn't even 5k new.

My neighbour has something similar to this:



His has windows on the sides. Could do with a bit of refurbishment TBH

Would that be worth anything (or worth more than what it cost brand new)?

You could make a profit on an Evoque, there's a long waiting list for them so you'd have had to have ordered it off plan a few years back mind.

that article is typical daily mail.

"fetches £65,000"

then goes on to say he won't accept less than £65,000, so has he sold it or not?

Also the person writing it has no clue about cars imo, "the shell had to be sandblasted" Wow, great info there i bet they got told that and thought it sounds technical
