Subject: Re: Rockingham Castle Auction H&H 15 June I went to see the car, but was not impressed, it was a significant rolling restoration, with lots of hidden gremlins. The car did not sell, interesting given that it had cost the vendor £23,000 at Bonham's last year. |

Subject: Re: Rockingham Castle Auction H&H 15 June There are now lots of new pictures of the car on the Bonham's web-site. I hope this time, the car makes it to auction under its own steam and with the original tank and fuel links now all cleared. Will be interesting to see what it makes at auction, prices for the 2.6 dhc's do seem to cover the full spectrum. |
