Back in the 80s I sold a mint Lotus Cortina and a mint V6 Uren Savage 1600e for peanuts compared to what they would be worth now but at the time there were loads around and they were nothing special. How times have changed!!
Ye things change a lot! I remember seeing the fire brigade using mk2 escort mexicos in their demonstrations in cutting people out of cars. When my dad was 17 he was offered a lotus Cortina mk1 for 700. If only he bought it and kept it.
