Agree with snoopy, you want a 850R then you buy one, you will wait forever trying to find the percect car, meanwhile they are getting harder to find and more expensive.
Also I wouldn't ever trust what the dash says on any 850, until you have read the combi module then km are a guess.
I still stand by what I wrote, I paid 5k for a 300k black 2 owner 854 t5r about 3yrs ago, as I said I'm all for high prices on rare car's but 10k is too much, I wouldn't pay it but each to their own, we'll agree to disagree ?
Cosmetics is far more important than a high km motor. One owner, full history... Heck he probably has original purchase receipts... Just coz he's asking 10k dun mean that's the final price. My wagon was advertised at 10k I paid 6500
But having a look on car sales the front bumper and bonnet are in poor condition.
Only 4 pictures of a 10k car, no close ups, no interior, no engine bay.
That does not look the best when you zoom in
There's plenty of the interior engine bay and exterior.
An 850R in white is a good thing.
$10K, regardless of service history and in need of some bodywork is more than I'd pay.
Its not stingy old ovlov owners buying though......
I probably wouldn't may more than 6. But I also wouldn't buy an auto..
Thats the kicker. These days it can be a better idea to find the right car and convert it if you're insistent on having a manual.
Think of it as finding a good starting point in current market prices, then if you really like the 850R that you've always lusted after, you'll restore it.
Always negotiate the price though, it takes alot of money to restore cars.
Its either your passion or your business.
If it's your passion you'll restore it at your pace and financial ability and enjoy the process.

Fossil makes sense ?
Not a lover of the seat covers
hmm, thanks all for the comments and feedback really appreciate it.
Use the stone chips on bonnet
Front bumper
I'd want to see the seats without the sheep skin covers off them
Full dash lights lit up, when were the speedo/odometer gears last changed.
Wheel bearings/drive shafts age? Serviced.
There's enough room for negotiation on price there
European prices for you, that's about 40k ?
There's a yellowT5R wagon for sale in Japan, big $$$$
