Great machines from the 80's and early 90s at auction.
Visited my uncle yesterday who had a 280 Capri back in the day and we started a chat about his cars.

Had a look on the bay this morning at retros and came accross an auction that I'm glad I can't go to.

Found these -

280 Brooklands.

Granada Cosworth. (I swear I'd have bought this if I didn't have the Fiesta - Amazing ! Great condition and no mileage at all ..)
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1992-Ford-...item258f01904a


Lotus Carlton. Didn't know they did them in right hand drive.

And one for a teenage boy - and a millionaire.

Everytime I see a Countach I think of the opening sequence to the Cannonball Run films.

I'd have thought that Lotus Carlton was worth a lot more.

Exactly that, I know it says it's a guide price but would have thought that's miles out? £16-20k maybe?

Mint and low mileage Lotus Carltons are worth a lot more than that, the clue is in the write up, "an honest interior matching age and mileage" = It's a bit tatty lol.
