HOW MUCH TO PAY

£ 750 TO £1500

Scrappers with blown engines sell for less, although any running-but-ropey ST220 will be in this price bracket. It might give years of terrific service, or it could be a massive money pit.

£1500 TO £ 3000

Most ST220s are found here, generally priced according to mileage and condition, with great early cars or well-used late models in any bodystyle or colour.

£ 3000 TO £ 5000

Minters and low-mileage ST220s command at least £3k, with the upper end home to the very best. If you’re paying this kind of cash, be sure to source your perfect spec and colour combo.
