[pistolar]

Thanks for the Heads Up Dave but doesnt float my boat compared to my Cooper S 6 speed Auto

[superwedge]

ok neil. I keep it on hold for you, until that 6 speed auto goes tits up?

[stuartmmcfc]

I really like that, especially as I can only drive autos now.
It's only the white interior that puts me off slightly.
edit: 20 years ago I always fancied a wedge but never got around to it.
I never knew there were any autos, are there many about?

Just looking at the list of wedges there and other sites, is it me, or are they starting to edge up in price?

[KKson]

They certainly seem to be compared to prices when I was looking late last year but no doubt the weather helps.

Hi

Auto's are not as rare as you may think!

The number of 280i made is over 60 a lot went to the USA, but I know of at least 20 in the UK (2 of which I have.)

The V8's are rare in comparison.

The car advertised is not the only 350i auto (Factory made) and there have been at least 2 made by owners (Pistola & Dave for one.)
There was also at least 2 x 400SE auto's made, one of which in LHD, was up for sale for some time a year or so ago.

With regard to the overall price increasing, the lower values has increased, but the upper values have not as much, but in all a stabilization with a slight increase.

But not as much as many other marques.

Thus the reason for the articlie in Classic Car Mag in April and there is another one by another classic car mag in the next month or so!
