It should be. There’s a ‘‘Clasic Data’’ organization which has a
brochure every year, and the same data is published in Europe’s
largest Olditmer mag, the german ‘‘Oldtimer Markt’’, which has
special edition only showing price info and trends every year. This
is 2007 data.

Great, let me know if you find anyone looking for what I would rate as a 2.xx car…comes with spare g’box; new fitted interior and as yet unfitted new chrome.

Hmm - in the UK a really good one, which would equate presumably
to ‘‘Condition 1’’ whatever that is, might on a very good day fetch �
22,500 = $ US 45,000 , but very nice cars without being outstanding
will not usually fetch more than � 15,000 = $ 30,000 . The plain
fact in the UK is that the 2+2 is not liked from a looks point of
view . These publications have a tendency to confuse the highest
and unrealistic asking prices with what actually happens in
transactions. The JEC website is a good guide these days, because
the JEC values cars on a daily basis for insurance purposes in the

Hi,
well, in germany they’re more rare (the E as such), and thus even
the 2+2 fetches more.
I don’t really trust the figures myself.
BTW, english cars are usually RHD and these are not really sought-
after here to say the least
Carsten
P.S:- Cond 1 is BETTER then new, undriven 105% restoration. Drive
it a few times and it gets a better 2+ and so on. Most daily driven
cars are roughly in cond. 3-4.–
