Early territory’s disappearing?

[nstg8a]

I’ve been on a quiet hunt for an early Terri for a few weeks now.... plenty of haggard ones around, not many clean ones.

Went and looked at one at a wholesaler the other day, they want 5k for it, but as is where is. No reg or rwc.
And that seems to be common for dealers around here.

When I asked him why it wasn’t being sold ‘drive away’ ready he said the changes to the stat warranty laws last year made them unviable to sell below 7-8k unless they know for certain all the bushes etc have been done.
Unless it’s mint they send them straight to the wrecker, or a second tier wholesaler.
Look on market place and it seems for every one Terri for sale there five being wrecked.
