That looks lovely, dread to think what buying one would cost! I don't know but I would think about the same as a new S5. An original SS100 metal as opposed to fibreglass replica costs around £190,000 on Car and Classics site so about half seems about right to me. The only thing that put me off the local Brunswick Green one is the finish on the fibreglass body just not for me up close. Here's an advert for one. http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C829863A few more. https://www.classicdriver.com/en/car/jaguar/ss-100/1938/196801?gclid=CNK-pIDP8tECFY8Q0wodYwYLTQ

There are quite a few posts about my SS100 on here which I sold to buy my E Type which I have now sold to fund the C Type.
The SS100 is a brilliant car, well built with a perfect finish. I found it more comfortable than the Morgan and certainly a nicer engine noise.
The new build price is north of an S5 Aero but for something even more exclusive, do look at La Riviera which Noel Edmunds commissioned from Suffolk Sports Cars. There is a nice video on the net.
Here for a good time not a long time!!

I assume Suffolk build the Riviera... I like the two tone paintwork. Very nice.
I suspect if buying a Suffolk SS100 that a previously owned version is the best way into it? They're all going to be well looked after. Did you ever take yours out in the wet Chris or Reg?
