I believe they were found out when a scrutineer dropped a screwdriver on the plate only to watch it bounce open!?! Back to the question originally posed regarding ST185 values - I see the model going through a transition at the moment, with the two main factors being a "flood" of cheap imports abounding currently, and the age and condition of local cars. The imports will always be cheaper - fact of life. True, you have pros and cons with them, but someone will always buy them, so people may as well get used to it. As for the local cars, we're really seeing a seperation between well maintained and lower Km cars with respectable prices still, and daily hacks with high miles, going very cheaply. I've bought the latter - a local car requiring alot of work to bring back to an acceptable road standard, even more work to make it a "fun to drive" car, and a hell of alot more work to make it an acceptable "Cheap" weekend motorsport car. At the end of the day, I suppose it boils down to more with what you are prepared to accept - a higher priced, better presented car, or a lower priced import, or local car requiring work to bring it back close to the former offering.
