Thanks.

The ad says super tuff burner and it's just down the road.

Looking at the description and cross referencing to Google would say it's a Rayleigh Burner Super Tuff 25th edition

Are they worth anything ??

 

[BretonM]

I've been looking for one for a while now but have never considered this specific type.
I really like it.

If it's a 25th edition is it a remake of the old ones or a vintage bike.

25th Aniversary would put it at around 2010 at a guess. I'm not up on BMX but had my original burner in the mid eighties.

They're worth whatever someone is prepared to pay I suppose but I'd say it's about its average price now. Anything much more than 100-150 pounds is probably excessive since they were only 249 pounds new in 2007 when they were released, and they're not mega rare although they're not overly common either and they'll have kitsch appeal for some. Depends on condition too, a battered one would be less, a mint one possibly a bit more.
Yes you're right that anniversary means just that, it was made 25 years after the original.

Some good fun for 150 notes I'd say, but it's nothing special in terms of BMXs. Or Burners for that matter, there are more sought after models for sure.

Went for the 2007 New Price.

Yeah like I said, a bike's value is really down to what two competing people are willing to pay for it. I personally think it was a bit dear at that price, but I wasn't bidding, and good luck to the new owner as I'm sure he'll have fun. The factors around "worth" or "value" can be quite personal.
