Hi all.
Today i recieved my monthly porn mag {Practical Classics} and i see they have
finally woken up to the fact that we drive classic cars. Although the listing is for cars
built between 1979-91,at least its a start.
Con/dealer £1100.00
Condition 1 £800.00
Condition 2 £500.00
Condition3 £300.00
What does the rest of you think?
Cheers Mark.

That's the usual cheap UK prices

Here, a condition 2 car is worth around 2300 Euros according to the lists ...
Cheers

Seems about right to me. Glad we're finally getting the recognition

Have the added an extra condition to the price lists, I thought it was 1 to 3?
I would have placed condition 3 at £150-200 though, beyond repair restoration 300s only fetch a smidgin above scrap value at the moment and the top condition a bit higher, if the listing covers the 360 as well.
Nice to see recognition in a good mag!

They saw the RC feature and thought they should get involved too
