Mk 2 cage
« on: 03 May 2010, 21:04 »
Howdy. I'm breaking my track car and i'll soon be trying to sell the cage on. No idea what to ask for it though as i haven't seen one for a while. It was fia approved but the b pillar hoop is too small for current regs. Any ideas?

To be honest mate they're kinda hard to value. Depends where it mounts, how it goes together, who made it etc.

Post up a link once it's on the bay though.

Sorry for the less than helpful reply but they don't come up that often and vary so much in construction that a definate value is very difficult.  In the end they are worth whatever two people competing to buy finally get to!  

edited as Nick and yourself got in before me.  :laugh:  As an aside do you have a figure in mind that you would be happy with?

I bought a 6 point cage for a Mk2 off of e-bay a few months ago £200 but was a only a Sparco or OMP bolt in (can't remember which one) . Mk2 cages are hard to get hold of secondhand so can go for good money.
