Since when did these go up in value by 100k!?? I'm sure they were going for around 50k not long ago? I do like them but not that much..

They will be saying the same about the current trend of white cars in years to come. Green / Racing Green / Oak Green were all big draw colours back in the day

ISTR there were only actually 164 roadgoing ones... They were slightly economical with the truth... Note the huge gaps in the numbers (some say taken up as works chassis numbers, but whether that's true, I've no idea) and the 'scrapped or work hacks', then there's the odd batch from sept'88, long after homologation, which were 'parts bin specials'...

I'd take it thanks...not at £150k though
