Atom 245 - 2010

Post by mypresenttome » Mon May 31, 2021 12:51 pm

Hi all,

Putting out feelers as I am thinking about selling my beloved Atom :'(

Atom 3 245
May 2010
MOT 30.12.21
Last serviced at factory 22.09.20 on 15724mls
Now on 15944mls
Owned since new
Currently wrapped in metallic green but blue underneath, no issues just fancied a change.
3.5 steering upgrade
3.5 ECU remap
LSD
Alcon front brakes, sport rear with handbrake
Aluminium adjustable dampers and two piece spring kit
16" wheel package with AD08's
SS sports exhaust
Original exhaust now in black heatproof paint
Aero screens
QR steering wheel with spacer
Locking fuel cap
12v auxiliary lighter socket
Clear lenses
Passenger foot rest
Tom Tom wiring
Custom made waterproof car cover 3/4 length

The car is well known at the factory and has been maintained there throughout its life, any parts that were advised have been renewed. There is a large amount of paperwork detailing its history at the factory.

There are some stuffs and marks as expect on a car of its age but it is in very clean condition and still drives beautifully.

£31,995ono

If anyone would like more information then please PM me. I am based near Exeter, Devon. Have not decided if the number plate is included but it would go on to AA10 UFO if I keep it (depends if I order a 4 or not!)

Michael

Well its gone, sold it to a guy who runs a garage in Cornwall who said he was going to use it for personal use, how naive of me. Now back on the market for £2.5k more than I paid in 2010!!
Had a buyer who was coming but the money was offered and to drive away there and then, I needed to sell it to fund a Nomad, very sorry I did not wait for him as I wanted it to go to an owner who would cherish it as much as I did but I fell for that one hook, line and sinker.

Oh well we live and learn

Can't imagine anyone is silly enough to buy it at that price.

Enjoy the Nomad, and don't feel bad about selling it to a dealer. At the end of the day, you've no real control over what happens to it next, and it's more important you get your money.

I just saw it was up for sale at Castle Motors in Launceston yesterday for £37500 and recognised it straight away. As you say, it will never shift at that price. Not surprisingly, Castle Motors does not have a great reputation...

Enjoy your Nomad.

I would have loved it Micheal, shame my timing was out to view it.

Was nice to chat to you, and hope to see you at a meet at some point in the future.

Nathan.

Thought it had gone but still available for anyone silly enough to pay pretty much the amount I did 11 years ago!

I'm glad they haven't sold it - they have dropped the price by £2.5k to £35k. I reckon to sell it the price will have to start with a 2...

It was actually bought by ‘Rev Comps’ and the raffle prize winner opted for the cash buy back. That dealer will have made their margin once already hence the price drop. I’d be tempted at a sensible price, what did you sell it to the dealer for?
