Just checked the ad in Octane and the Lynx D Type is actually advertised for 'only' £295,000 so £35k less than I thought (website says POA). That's about an 80% mark-up over a fully restored E Type they also have at £160,000 with the only real difference between them being the rebody.

Should also have mentioned that only an offer within a few hundred pounds of the asking price was going to make me part with my Spyder as I would rather have kept enjoying it than given it away for less than its true value.
I also gave the new owner a written, no-strings guarantee that he could return the car to me in the same condition within one month of taking ownership and I would pay him back the full price received, I was genuinely that sad to see it go -
So, Rochdale, I'm not going to enter into a slag-fest, but I would like to see what you can build as this is a forum for dedicated build it yourself 'special' car nuts, not trolls who just want to criticise others' proud achievements.
