Would it break for a good sum Ian? Parts are like new as they are SO clean and it would save you the heartache of it possibly getting ruined after all the hard graft

I'd love to see the other two!

I love this car, it is amazing and a real credit to you Ian.

I hope you get what you're looking for for it.

Thanks for the comments guys

I kind of regret not selling the car at the start of the year. After all the hard work I have put in to get it like this I thought just keep it and enjoy it, but, having been to a few shows this year (which I am also bored of!) I feel that I have come to the end of the line with the car and need to move on to something else.

Have thought about breaking it up, but I dont have the inclination to do that, just want it gone now I have made my mind up!

I know its top money, but its a top car. ( well I think so lol!)

Ian.

I think it's worth this kind of money all day long.

It is a proven Concours winner after all.
