a realisticly priced saph has got to be the rarest . having looked at a few lately it seems rusty and ragged shitless examples are expected to fetch top money .

Rouse Sports will be the Rarest Saph Cosworths

Radient Red is the Rarest Colour, apart from the above mentioned mallard green and pacifica blue


Just to add Smokestone blue is the best colour by far

Any sapph seems to be rare these days, you don't see any on the roads these days because they are all tucked away.
