What should be the price of a Mini Austin?, total original, as the seller is demanding 150K...

[Farrushah]

@ Khangarh: Seems like a very good deal. Go for it!

Depends on the condition, either describe original ( engine, interior, suspension, brakes) or put up pictures. No one can give you an estimate of value without any information.

Though i quite like Storm's quote-A car is worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it.

sir i am interested to see the car..... if you are not interested in the first place

[mskkhan]

What a waste. No interest, love or desire to see these cars see the light of day. They want them locked up, forgotten and to rot away just like the deceased owners in who's memory they claim to still hang onto them.

we love these cars dearly. however you are right we have locked them up only because we have other things to worry about instead of cars at the moment. the children of the late salim khan do love the cars and will be restoring them to their potential very soon.

@drnagi

these cars are in pindi. Actually its in the house right oppostie mine and for 4 years i didnt know they exhisted until one day they brought the 220s out (making space of a treasured Xli). i just went in to check the 220s and the servant told me abt the lincoln n 280s. He didnt have any phone numb for any family member and i didnt push him too much.... i hardly see anybody coming to that house. Sometimes a couple of guys come in that "lucky" Xli.... next time i see them i will try to get hold of some family member's numb.... maybe you and mjabbasi Sb can convince them to let go of these beauties.!

the only car that isnt taken care of is the mercedes s220 which is parked outside in the ground of the house because it does not belong to the nawab of dir's immediate family. one of our relatives has given it to us to keep for them as they dont have space in their house. the other garages are occupied with the family's cars which at the moment are the civic vti oriele, mitsubishi lancer, lincoln continental and the merc s280.

@drnagi

I know the DIR family very well. These cars belong to late Nawab Khusro Khan of DIR who was the eldest son of the Nawab of DIR Sir Shah Jehan Khan. The 2 sons of Nawab Khusro Khan - Nasir Khan and Saleem Khan are also dead. Currently the Nawab's widow and Saleem Khan's son lives in the house. Currently he drives an XLi and a black Lancer. After the Govt. took control of the state in 60's, Nawab Sir Shah Jehan Khan and Khusro Khan were moved to Lahore and lived in FCC/Gulberg. The Buick is now in Islamabad with a former son-in-law of Dr. Qadeer Khan - Saad Zameer in E-7.

salim khan has 2 sons and 1 daughter just to clear that out since your information is wrong. who also live in the house in pindi with their grandmother. the older son drives a civic he recently bought, and we never had an xli. it was either a 2.0d or an altis. the xli probably belonged to one of the guests that visit frequently.
