Adam that is very interesting to read and more what I would expect to be seeing here on the Island.

I believe we are seeing the bottom fall out of the market here on Classic Cars for two reasons really, everyone that is weak willed / blackmailed is getting seduced into the full EV as if there is no other options available and good luck to them when hydrogen steps in as the Real Messiah.

The next major factor here is our reversion to a weak Labour Government who is already displaying their normal political traits with unemployment on the rise together with inflation and of course growth rate is abysmal, confidence in a Governments abilities is a huge factor I think, just my personal look at things.

We went out and bought a 4/4 Sport for our Son to dispose of some capital lest the present coven purloin it through slippery tax laws.
