I personally dont think the current state of the country is related to the price of a cosworth imo. Most people who have one or who are in the market for one, have it as a second car so if they are fortunate/lucky enough to have a £10k-£20k car as a second car, then i dont think the current price/tax increases will effect them 'that' much as i cant see people in this situation living on the edge so to speak. If they are 'living on the edge', then a cossie is not a car to have anyway imo.

The reason the prices may come down is due to people not being able or prepared to wait for the right buyer. If people that need/want a quick sale (for whatever reason) panic and lower the price drastically, then i still dont think it will be enough to effect the cossie market as a whole as most people are prepared to wait imo.
