Very interesting post Luddite, thank you.
He clearly has a jaundiced view of 1950s cars and older, but I think he is right....
However, I don't think a Countach represents the modern market for the general punter
BaT has a U.S. focus, so Yank 60/70's muscle cars do well. The same applies to Holdens and Fords of similar age in this part of the world.
Quality Europeans like the 1936 540K Benz will ALWAYS pull good money, but again, well beyond the reach of the average contestant.
The big mover has been later model Japanese sports cars pulling massive money.
My comment regarding BaT prices was based on recent "Morgan" sales of an M3W and some trads.
