The Lotus camp was well represented with the various series Esprits, Elise, Exiges, an Europa (haven't seen one of these in years) and a couple of Evoras.

Actually there was one for Darren C also (aka Nanny McPhee sponsor) - 1913 Silver Ghost, just imported.

It amazes me what people here will import. This was a beautiful car though

Great find Dermot,

I love the "All Original" quote... :lol:
Converted to a truck...then restored with another body :lol:

All original my Ar*e

That aside an early two wheel brake ghost is still worth over £200K, even a Frankenstein like this one.

If it were all original it'd be £400K +

P & A Wood had a 1911 Ghost with only 10,000 miles on from new....now thats what I'd call ALL ORIGINAL, mind you it was £3million ;)

200k - holy sh1t. I'd have paid more attention had I known.

the resto must have been good - the rear compartment smelled like my granny's front room :D

I wish!

Theres a similar 1912 here for sale at £585,000.00 it's a resto too ;)

http://www.pa-wood.co.uk/preowned/class ... 1912.shtml

or this at £575,000.00

http://www.pa-wood.co.uk/preowned/class ... 1911.shtml

This one is the icing on the cake.

http://www.pa-wood.co.uk/preowned/class ... ster.shtml

(some say £5million)

As for me, my humble Nanny Mcphee cars only worth a couple of £100K :shock:

better start saving :lol:

(but I do have one of these too....

http://www.pa-wood.co.uk/preowned/class ... oupe.shtml

except my 1935 is even rarer as it's 1 of two known to exist, but mine has Bugatti semi circular swages down the side and is much prettier)

Ok that's enough.....you all hate me enough already :roll:

The Atlanta one at Bonhams in 09 - sold for just under 200k

http://www.bonhams.com/cgi-bin/wspd_cgi ... ectionNo=3

clearly that is because it has the cloth interior, whereas the 585k ones have the full leather interior!!

I have to say, that it looks better in the Atlanta sunshine, rather than a wet muddy field

I was spot on the money then :lol:

It's so low because of the jaded history, especially that truck nonsense.

I keep tellin you guys to stop messing with your De's, in another 80 years you'll regret ripping out that Craig or fitting Volvo parts. :lol:
