Absolutely ! Less than the engine cost.

That can''t be far off 'Buy a Rebello engine and get a free race car'.

Sounds like it was in the wrong auction!

 

[Mark N]

There was a lot of very nice vehicles in the auction that could have diverted attention.
Even some nice toy cars:

The green RHD car also sold that was flipped once.... was up for 35K...wonder which was the better buy.

Can't help but feel that was in the wrong auction to fetch a price like that. Probably better suited to Silverstone Auctions during Silverstone Classic.

So does that mean all cars on here are worth £5k?

Or does it reflect the value of it over in Europe with a Rebello engine ( not knocking Rebello) rather than a DJR engine??????

 

[jonbills]

I'd think Rebello name is at least as well known here as DJR.

White elephant in the euro market room - RHD is a liability it seems
