He seems rather bitter, though I have to agree with his summing up at the end, the pre sale estimates are very optimistic for most and the money being asked (and sometimes achieved ) for Mk1 Lotus Cortinas and Escorts and those A35s is bewildering, no matter whose race team prepared them. I am a little confused by the eligibility rules for classic racing over there -for example the much modified front geometry on the Cortina Lotus cars etc etc. I agree with only genuine cars ie no replicas being allowed however when some of these are turning up as virtual silhouettes of the original? In the sixties the Alfa Romeo GTAs were running a clean sweep of the European touring car champs with Autodelta and their drivers -yet these same cars dont get a look at the Ford hotrods turning up at Goodwood lately, perhaps a 500k race is needed to show the difference.
