Exactly what i said Steve

you will be shocked how many people think all 3 doors are rs500s

Why on earth would anyone pay double ( or more in this case ) than the car was realy worth

Stupid

No it was from a old boy who wanted a cosworth to collect but dont use internet/forums and wanted a cossie, in all fairness if you lot wanted a cossie but dont use internet were would you find one as our local Auto Trader hasnt had any in for a while. Auction was just down the road from me but my friend made it and said there was 3-4 people bidding upto the 40k mark. we take it for granted we can buy cheap cars because we have luxury of forums and ebay.

Exactly it's all about how informed you are, and how much money you have to spend, some people on here will haggle over a £15k car as they will need to stretch to afford it, others with plenty of expendable income will be pay over the going rate for the convenience of just having it easy.

The Ad says it was but who knows without inspection, I'll bet not many haven't been touched up over the years, not saying it was worth the price paid just a general muse really

It is compared to the one he bought and nothing to spend on it either! More money than sense is what I think.
