I know of two beautiful Canberra cars, both OG Turbo examples that sold for around the 15K mark. Both untouched and low K's. Had the privilege for going for a cruise in one and honestly its an experience I think a lot of the newer VL scene is missing out on. I will talk to the owner and if he is keen I will get some photos of it. Knowing him, he won't want to because there will be some small imperfection thats needs rectifying Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I know of a few sub 100klms original examples, and owners aren't looking at selling. Not because they are waiting for "the right time" but because they are true enthusiasts and want to keep the dream alive of making sure that there will be perfect examples surviving this molestation period. When you see an example that has original paint (ultra rare), original bumpers and lights (ultra rare), plush interior which still has that new car smell, original factory 5 speed, engine like brand new, original factory kick up exhaust, etc...etc...it truely is something else. As for the pricing of these, it is only worth what the buyer is willing to pay. I was willing to pay up to 20k back in 2004 - 2006 for a low k true example, and up to 30k for a totally unmodified low k HDT LE turbo 5 speed (before Brocks passing), but nothing HDT ever popped up that fit that description. In todays market, it doesn't make a difference. If i was still looking and had the coin, and the right car popped up (which with my expectations, i've yet to see one in the last 5 years), i would still pay top dollar, knowing that an oportunity might not come my way again.

The only reason the market is slow on performance cars is because of the lying that goes on.Just like this guy selling his "Original".It's a played with piece of **** that in his mind is something special.If you have got an "ORIGINAL" nice car,doesn't hav to be a vlct.It is always worth good money and there are always buyers willing to pay good coin 4 the"Right"car.Be patient let enough people know what youre after and willing to pay a fair price,be in a position if the "Right"car does appear you can act on it straight away or you'll miss out altogether.Good luck
