Historic Racing 1981

[Dinoboy]

Great little film with a few well known characters from the world of Historic racing.
Interesting talk on values, £90k for a Ferrari 512S.

GT40 - "Could have been bought eight years ago for £6500... and the price today? £65,000." Still so cheap consider what they are now. Where's that bloody time-machine?

Seems like another zero gets added on every 10 years.

Allowing for inflation, that £65k would be the equivalent of almost £250k now, so probably about a factor of 10 increase in real terms today. I wonder how the value of a London house has performed over the same period?
