Gerhard,
Here's another Price "Guide"
http://www.specialcar.com/priceguide/price_t.html
This one is put out by the same people who do Thoroughbred and Classic Car
Magazine. These prices are a little lower than what you're showing but still
appear to be higher than what we see here in the States. Based on these 2
price lists....... I could actually MAKE money if I sold my car..........
but I'm on the wrong side of the Pond.
