Early Mulliner Saloon - SOLD

[Dave Wortley]

Me too Malcolm, in all areas, except for hair growth in ears and nose. What is the point? Pity the hairs cannot be transferred to my scalp.

Well, taking Mr Mathewson's assessment into account, I am prepared to offer him £2 19s 6d to take the appalling thing off his forecourt.

This leaves me about five bob in the bank account which I shall use to purchase that dreadful supercharged Ulster...

Derek Mathewson is incredibly knowledgeable and has been at what he does for many years. He knows what he's doing. He has the view, based on his on going real time experience, that the market has moved on from pre-war cars and those in the early post war years to 1960's - 1980's vehicles and any student of the market will confirm that's the case. Of course, we tend to be more interested in the pre-war, Sevens particularly, but I'm afraid we're a shrinking breed and the buyers now are more interested in performance model Fords, GTIs etc. etc.

That's long been the case as the demographic changes. How many are now interested in veteran cars, or girder-forked motorcycles? Only a select few, but those vehicles that people lusted after in their youth are always going to be good sellers. Time to lay down a batch of the Tesla ready for the 2060s?
Of course, nobody breaks into a smile and waves when a Ford Escort drives past - no matter how garish the paint job or large the pop-riveted-on rear wing....

Looks like the Mulliner saloon sold for £8331.
