It wasn't to my taste and its not the style of car for me, but it was a cracking car when it was finished. Sold to an enthusiast who wanted a really nice example and that's the going rate for them at the moment.
Just wanted to use this as an example that a car doesn't have to have much in the way of performance, practicalities and the like to be desirable, collectable and interesting.
