Apparently the chummy sold on the day to someone in the room. They certainly had a bargain!

hi lance,
its looking like some one got a bargain.
on there catalogue they just gave the lot number and sale price. the 23 car wasnt listed as sold.
there back catalogue is now up, and it is showing as SOLD.
thanks tony

Well, there's a surprise! At that price it had to have gone to a dealer.

could have pushed it home too!

cant falt him,
he turned out and bought it.
although seeing his other vehicles he has for sale, im surprised he is scrapeing the barrel with a £10k profit austin 7.

Imagine how the seller is feeling now, as he will be lucky to net £11k

Yes, I feel for the vendor, but the real test will be whether the dealer can actually get £25K. I will be interested to see how long the car remains for sale. I regularly watch most of the dealers' websites and the overpriced cars tend to stay for months and in some cases, years.

There is still the engine & gearbox to be sold separately as well by the looks of it.

hi edgar,
the vendor offered me the 1923 last year for £30k. with his ill helth, i dont think the money for money sake is the problem.
the value on the car represents its a lovely car worth a lovely price.
i think he will be more upset, that bidders though so little of his car.
