Record Breaking Prices

[Vista]

Record breaking prices you say?

🤔 how about nearly £600k for a Sierra?

[katana]

When Cossies got to £100-125k, I thought i'd seen it all ! Over half a million for a 'jellymold' - someone needs their bumps felt!

Thats like ten times the amount than the Twincam I just posted! For plastic bumpers?!!

The crazy prices starting making me feel a little guilty so I decided to wash my Twincam for the first time in several years and went all out and spent 30 quid on a new cover as the old one was held together with pegs. Even took out some junk stored on the back seat! Boot is still full of alloy rims and Toyota Camry parts though.

You guys are really doing it tough over there. We can get a bag of potatoes and a punnet of strawberries as well for for that sort of money!

Love it in that colour, sure it will make big money, even if the market is falling.

The decimal point was put in the wrong place by the same person running the Swedish Lottery 🤣

Covid time estimate, prices have crashed, watch any of the live auction sites to see by how much.........still does not stop me wishing I had a massive lottery win under my belt .......

Interesting story RP. It’s second resto it seems and by all accounts, better than it left the factory. 
 

I wonder if it will grace the classic car circuit? Maybe OSF can persuade the owner to the NEC next year and join the forum. That would be a coup wouldn’t it.

180,000 Grand! Starting Price! 😄 One grand is a 1000 bucks right? go figure haha.

A typo what it is. More like 18 Grand. But anyway Prices gone skyhigh.. for classic cars.
