HEAPS !!!!!! A guy up here just bought one for $15000 restored,looks like it just left the showroom floor. He got it very cheap I reckon.....extending your stable?????

Nice one's unrestored will go for around 3-5K, last one I saw for sale was 5K but that was a few years back. Really good one's can go a lot higher (10K+)

Definitely considered a 'collectors' car now, especially by rotorphiles.

An apprentice at work about 10 years ago was able to buy new LH & RH door skins and LH & RH rear quarter panels for his R100. He bought his for $500 back then and had it as his daily driver.

a well restored correct R100 in pretty much perfect conditon will get upwards of $20k if not more maybe.

Be careful, lots of 1200/1300 replicas being flogged as R100's, chassis number must start with M10A for it to be an R100.

A half decent bog stocker that was semi-modded in the 90s style will get $6-8k.

I probably shouldn't have sold mine, but it was too modified to be a keeper, I'd buy a restored stocker to keep a bit later down the track.....but prices will keep going up, they are a little out of control now, its the sydney fellas pushing them through the roof....which is why I left the scene. Still very much a rotorhead at heart!

Is this to counter the dudes with VW rotaries?

Are you going to put an aircooled volksy engine in it?

and now wishes he kept it as it is worth a packet so he tells me like 15k+ crazy..

There's a R100 body on ebay at the moment but I dont think it will stay cheap for long. My family was into rotors before they were popular early 80's. We owned a rx-3 coupe, a r100 + a rx2 four door. My grandmother owned the 7th serious 1 rx7 to come into the country and only sold it a few years ago with 70,000kms on the clock. I wish I kept the 3 and the r100 because now they are asking silly money. My mum would let me buy it off her as my 1st car thinking I would killl myself. The extend bridgeport went well. The only thing I kept out of it was the spare rev beeper thats going into my 54.

I suppose it's a bit like early beetles... they are worth what ever people pay for them.

Yeah R100 with a 2.6 Type 4 engine in the fron with a big set of IDA's sticking up through the bonnet!!!

Take one back for the Volksy purists for all the rotaries put in Volkswagens.Then again it'd be a death trap as they don't handle to well!

mine handled pretty well considering it had 352hp@wheels, with a locker, reset leafs, and just some lowered springs! FUN!

Up to $25k depending on the car, like Flintstones wrote your best bet is ausrotary.com or ipswichrotorcrew.com to check out whats going currently.

dvs_vw ·

mmmm I dunno, Ausrotary is full of a lot of dreamers and talkers, it has gone rapidly downhill in the past year.....people think an average R100 with a crap paintjob and turbo motor is worth $20k+, its not a good guide for price. Ipswichrotarycrew, maybe more sensible in its thoughts, but your best bet is post some pictures and ask on either of those, but don't try and go by whats for sale on them, generally aren't any original restored ones for sale anyway.

Chuck a pic or 2 up here and let us see?

Is this a question for you buying, or selling?

Craig Torrens ·
