IF it ever gets sold at that price you can guarantee, as it says in the advert it is an ornament and it will never get driven again. Maybe Ford should buy it to add to their heritage fleet? Crazy money!!

Silly silly money that. If you want an ornament just buy a 1.18th scale model.

Daft. I can understand £20 -£30k due to the miles but it would take a fair bit to use it as things will have worn and you would kill the value if you put miles on it. My mate has a 3.2 Carrera club sport (1 of less than 40) 1987 with 13,000 miles on it, it is valued at £230k and he is scared to use the bloody thing...I would prefer a £50k normal 3.2 and rag the shit out of it like they were designed to do.

You need deep pockets as the prices have got so high its only collectors or investors buying them now. Most will never be seen again or ever get driven!

I 100% agree. The normal enthusiast can't afford to own these cars now. It's a rich mans game now.
