Buying

What should I be paying?

It would be a pretty rare groove collector keeping an eye out for one of these in the UK. The ever excellent howmanyleft.co.uk currently lists four original Ponys still in use on UK roads at the end of 2022. The most since 2019, which is nice.

Hardly surprising that there are currently no cars for sale in the UK. In fact, even expanding that out to Europe, we only found one Pony/Pony 2 on the market, a ratty example in Greece wearing a POA tag. Doubtless hoping someone will think it’s a classic and make a daft offer. More modern Ponys are available from around €1,000. If you must.

But only an original Pony or Pony 2 can make any sort of claim at being historically significant. Given where Hyundai is now, in terms of its scale and success, a beautiful original probably does have some value. The question though, is who would pay for it.
