I remember in the 'fuel crisis of the 70's seeing a 246 Dino in Exchange and Mart for £2000. It was so tempting but I already had a 3ltr Marcos (and no garage) so had to pass on it ... still think about it - that 'what if' feeling.

Peter, around the same time as your missed opportunity during the fuel crisis, I was trying to sell my old 6276cc Jensen interceptor, no takers... ended up swapping it for a rusted out 912...
Just a very few years earlier, someone offered me an E Type when I had advertised the LWB Safari which I had rebuilt out of three old LR`s, and I remember nocking him back saying..."Do you think I am nuts.."..!!!
Yeah time changes much... (-:
