Picked this little imp up as part of a deal with 2 other cars. I have no idea about imps and just trying to get a rough idea of what it would be worth. It is very crusty (sills, rear arches, bottom of rear quarters all replacing), other body work does need attention but looks salvageable, engine is seized from plugs being left out. On the plus side it does seem to have all the original caledonian extras and looks complete. so have we got any imp experts on here that might be able to give me a rough idea of what it's worth?

Good project, Caledonian is pretty rare too.

Yeah would make a nice project for someone, I would be getting on with it myself if I hadn't bought this at the same time So the imp has to go, just need a rough idea of what it's worth. One lad has said between £700-£1000 but I have no idea how realistic that figure is. I can't find another caledonian for sale or even an old adds to try and get a comparison from

From my limited experience the fact it's a Caledonian makes it more interesting than a standard Imp, rather than any more valuable / desirable. Therefore if you want it gone and seeing as it will take many hundreds of hours of work / £thousands to get it back to decent condition I would price it at £500 firm.

Had a couple of imp owners say it may be worth between £700-£1000, but I'm well aware that that is pretty meaningless unless someone has money in their hand willing to give it to you. So I've put it up with a £800 guide price but very open to offers. It'll be going on ebay with a low reserve in the next couple of days and if it doesn't even get to that I'll crack on with it myself

Chucked it on ebay with no reserve and apparently it was worth £511. Very happy with that, hopefully it will be saved
