That's just a couple of miles away from me. It's been a while since I've been there for an auction but I've seen some cracking cars go through eg years ago I saw a Jensen Interceptor go through ... but I've also seen some dogs go through too. They've even pushed one through .... its engine ran but wouldn't select gears.

Mostly what it would be used for.
 Agreed it is probably a bit of a dog, but I like the model.
