Hammer 5500 - around £6600 after fees a realtive bargain - looks like having an auction on Thanksgiving isnt the best of ideas. I suspect this will be viewed as a rea bargain by whoever bought it!!
happy thanksgiving to our American members!!

The time of year is significant with Xmas spending coming up. A very good time of year to buy used cars too, particularly convertibles! But that was a nice medal for that price. Well bought whoever you are. (£6820 after commission and vat).
