Wack Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 A guy on the maserati forum said his family moved to australia in 1977, his dad had a DB5 , nobody wanted it , couldn't take it with him so he ended up taking the dealers offer of £3000 for it , when you look back at all the cars we could have bought if we'd had the room and spare cash who'd have thought what a Mk1 escort mexico would be worth today , in the early 80s a mate towed one to the crusher because they decided it was beyond repair but it was nothing like the ones you see being dragged out of a field selling for ££££££ on ebay Owain71 and Scruffy Bodger 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hertz Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 My old boss had a DB6. He sold it to the guy that owns Transound near Christies Hospital in Manchester for about £20,000 in 96 or 97. It sat in the showroom and I used to polish it every week, what a car that was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kringle Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Speaking of Astons, does anyone know of the green DB7 that's been neglected in a council estate in south bristol? Saw it the other day and checked the reg ecz 8841 made for interesting reading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead_E23 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I wonder what lives in that garage that is important enough to displace it from the warm and dry? Â Depending on who rules the roost in that house, I'd say it is either a Bugatti Royale or a washing machine and tumble dryer. My money is on the latter. garethj, Dick Longbridge, AMC Rebel and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Bo11ox Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 I say leave it where it is!!!! At the moment its open for anyone to see regardless of income, age, nationality, whatever else, where else can you see a million pound car rusting away on the driveway of a suburban semi? Don't take that away from people. The council should get a preservation order on it so it can continue to benefit the general public. lincolndanny, Banger Kenny, UltraWomble and 15 others 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
