So how many have you got now? I seem to remember that about 50-odd survived. However I bet a good 30% of those are V8’s now.
Still a work in progress! It’s not easy to match up foreign plates to former uk ones though, and a leading question is what exactly is ‘survived’? I have decided that survivors are taxed or have established recent use (ie racing) and/or photos.Incidentally yours was electric blue gone dark blue is that correct?

By the way, how did you know it was electric blue originally? It was black when I bought it so I know of no photos of it in that colour.Incidentally yours was electric blue gone dark blue is that correct?

tter ..... Flip a stter.. no doubt a 10k profit all for the cost of a bucket of soapy suds!!There seem to be lots of folk trading on ebay these days who add no value..... !!
I see a story with this car, Most likely an old boy, not connected to the internet, not too tech savvy and most likely he was quite happy with his 5k or so he sold the car for... One trailer ride and a bucket of soap and water later I suspect the reserve price will be of the order of 13-15k.... Some out there will no doubt start to talk about the market forces of supply and demand.. in my view however someone will have been undersold and someone else will overpay... then in about 5 years time that person who has overpaid and used up 5 years of his life will be told that his car is not worth £50k.... But the soap and bucket man earned a 10k mark up for a day out with his car trailer...
Like I said.. it seems in the world these days it doesn't pay to add value!! just buy any stter you can find and add a couple of grand on... someone will always pay!!

But the fact remains, why does it matter what the seller bought it for? Apart from envy I can’t see it’s relevant as it’s now it will realise its value. I’m sure you’re right about how it ended up on eBay but that’s history I see a story with this car, Most likely an old boy, not connected to the internet, not too tech savvy and most likely he was quite happy with his 5k or so he sold the car for...

If that same old chap had sold it to you for £5k I doubt you’d be happy to sell it just for that plus your petrol getting it !
You’ve also just denigrated every jeweller in the country and I must say I agree with you there but it’s a different market.
It’s not a million miles from me but I’ve got no space left.
