Not as gutted as me mate. It's some serious garage clear out, how can a man have no toys
And to insult to injury, people are offering silly money

What price are they offering for the car don't seem to have anyone intrested in mine.

I had as low as £500, with the best offer being £3300
It had lots and lots of interest on Ebay, I was getting questions constantly. Over 1300 people looked at it and it had 20 bids with over 50 watchers at one point. It didn't meet the reserve, so I didn't sell it.

£500!!!! That's outrageous. When we got our Beat in spring 2006, i figured it would always be worth around the £2900 we paid for it. I guess the current economic situation means that isn't the case. It's been in the for sale section of this forum for well over a year and i haven't had a single bite. I think the old adage "An item is only worth what a buyer is willing to pay" really applies here. Anyone else had to let their Beat go for an insult of a price lately?

Dude -don't sell the Beat!
I've had mine since '92 and fatherhood arrived 5 years ago. Everybody said '"it'll have to go!" -but I didn't listen, and I'm SO glad.
Now I've got a champion Beat-cleaner who's always up for a boring shopping trip if it involves a ride in "Daddy's racing car".
He loves going anywhere with the top down, here's a pic I took at 70mph on a freezing A303 December last year coming back from a weekend in Cornwall.
Keep the Beat! -Jc.
