These are all worth £6,000,000 now because one definitely wasn't bought to game the system at the FoTU. 

I keep seeing references to this, what exactly happened?

£600 has to be worth a punt if it drives ok, surely?

A group of mates bought a low-mileage Baleno saloon specifically to enter (and attempt to win) the FOTU. 
It won a subsidiary award of some kind, not the runner-up prize they claimed, and it went straight back on Auto Trader and eBay with an inflated price tag 'because it came runner-up at  FOTU 2023'.

Sam Skelton is coming in this week. I'll ask him what made up prize it won.

@meggersdog It was an award given by the judges on the day in recognition (as it was a really nice example). 

I have a really weird professional relationship with the FOTU as I'm sure he's mentioned to you, but he'll confirm about the award, too.

A missing wheel trim is fine on a £500 banger, but on a £7,400 Nova that had £15,000 of tlc?

'Believed to be only one of two examples currently on the road in the UK'

It's a sodding cheap decals and wheel trims 'special edition' not a bleeding Nova Sport.
