Do You Think Scrambler Will Affect Sport Classic Used Prices???

Discussion in 'Scrambler' started by Moo!, Feb 27, 2015.

  1. Just to say that I really "get" the Scrambler and it will be on my purchase list soon.

    However with the Sport Classic going "silly money" over the last 2 years or so do you think the arrival of a brand new "retro" Ducati, fresh and clean on a showroom floor near you, will see buyers preferring that instead? Cue Sport Classic prices coming back down to their previous levels of about £4.5k to £5k?

    The reason is I used to own a SC mono - and I really miss it but don't want to pay @ £10k to buy one back.

    Here's how silly prices got - I paid just under £5k for my old 2007 baby in 2011 - from a dealer , I sold it last year for £7,900....

    Yep, the value of the classics will definitely improve.
    The scrambler brand is so Marmite.
    In the words of top gear...I think Ducati is following in Peugeot footsteps*.




    * After making a few great cars for years, for the last ten years they've made a huge number of crap cars for people who don't like cars or driving.

  4. I paid £3600 for an sc1000, sold it with 3000 on the clock for 4300! He'd get 6500+ for it now lol.

  6. Introduction of the Scrambler is irrelevant.

    Dealers are inflating SC prices, look at the Paul Smarts on EBay now, they're hanging around at £15k. All SC's are worth a lot more than they were 5 years ago that's for sure but I'm not convinced they're selling at these inflated prices.
