I read that and thought "Fuck off they were £14,000 for a house..."

I was so convinced I was right I looked for proof...

the proof just proved you right

Min average house price in the UK was 10k in the north to 30k in London, I can't get my head round that.

£19950 for an RS500
£15950 was the launch price of the 3-dr but when the last ones were selling RRP was around £17400

Base price of the E30 M3 at the launch of the RS500 was about £23550, E28 M5 was about £34850, Mercedes 190-E 2.3-16 £27,300, 944 Turbo (220bhp) £36874
