That's the Patrick collection car.

Fantastic looking, unique, and absolutely immaculate last time I saw it but a bit of an oddity.......the price was really high last time and then dropped rapidly as no-one could work out what to do with it. It was almost too good to use and really did belong in a museum, but that kinda defeats the object of owning it. :?

At least with the extra miles it's done since it's not such a dilema.

Do you think they would take a 0 off the price. The wife would kill me if I had 2 on the drive.

You don't have to tell me, my GTA has done more miles than the Millenium Falcon.
I'm just here for the gasoline.

Darren, sounds like you have persuaded yourself to go and view it, best to take a deposit with you just in case???

The Le Mans that was for sale on this site went for something nearer £12k and had had a load of money spent on it to get it right underneath and air con working etc so that sets the value. Mill Lane Renault in Aldershot also have a low mileage one that gets advertised from time to time so it might be negotiable if anyone just cant resist it. Now 2 Alpines parked in the drive would be seriously wicked! :evil:

That is just plain greedy! Actually I peaked at 7 cars at the start of last year. 4 Rover P5Bs, 1 Rover 827 Vitesse, 1 A610 and a Volvo V70 2.5T. I am now down to 2 P5Bs, the A610 and the 2.5T plus a Moto Guzzi crept in somewhere along the way but it doesnt have enough wheels to count. What is it about us car nuts that we cant resist buying more? 8)

I think they should have to work to be counted. Ah that helps me, I only have 3 cars and 1 motorcycle on that basis. One of my P5Bs has been work in progress since 1993 but it is nearly done. Just needs the engine, gearbox and brakes rebuilt to finish it off. :?
