Collectible, desirable, but a Sport 135 is friendlier, more useable and rarer.
I can't understand how any 160 could be worth £29k?
Woody has one. In bits. Yours for £15k?!

Oh I dunno.
If this one is worth £26k then maybe that's the going rate.

Suppose it might be helpful that neither seller is in any rush to sell and would be happy to keep it.

With the prices people are asking for even run of the mill old stuff (have you seen the price of Mark 1 Mexico/RS1600s?) It's not surprising.Also talking up the price of old cars has been going on for years.
If you look around there are very few unmolested S1s out there (last time i was at a trackday of the seven (IIRC) S1s there, 6 had Honda engines).
But the rule is the same as always - if you think it's too dear don't pay it
PS I know where there is a one owner very early Elise (1998 i think) - it's not for sale though.

Thanks for that
If he/she has a change of heart, please give me a shout, stop me from buying a Cerbera

I suspect the cheapness won't be 'much' enough to suit me

Remember an Evora is for life not just for Christmas.

I have perhaps confused "cheapness" with "value".
Astonishing value.
Remember quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten..
(And where will you find a Lotus more carefully looked after? Not to mention Campbell drives like my mum!)
