General Car Chat / The insanity of 'so called classic car' prices.

« on: 03 September 2023, 13:09:51 »

A couple of days ago I stumbled upon an episode of Bangers and Cash. Undemanding viewing.

Anyway, under the hammer goes a 1979 Mini 1275 GT. It sells for £22000 plus auction fees.

For those who don't know, the 1275 GT Mini was the emasculated limp-dick successor to the 1275 Cooper S from the sixties. They detuned the Cooper S by some 15 BHP and then stuck a butt ugly 'Clubman front' on it.

How did this very ordinary little car suddenly become worth £22000?

Insane.

Do I need some sort of puller, because despite plenty of WD40 after removing the nut under the cover they won't shift?
