They showed a classic Rally on TV, about 5 years ago, for cars made, I think pre 1960, and the Aurelia, was amazingly fast, and agile, compared to others. It hunted down supposedly faster cars, swept past them on corners, and just blew them away. Truely gorgerous car, and so far ahead of its time.

Oh, just to add. I bet the orignal head of Jean Marie's Aurelia, could of been 'lockstiched'

Crumbs 40k.....Will yours be worth that when she has been finished Frank....

 

[Parisien]

No idea......looks light a very professional job though....but you'd need to be an expert to verify a suggested price.....

£40K for a mint Mille miglia entry is very reasonable in my book , once completed the MM will only addto its value ,



regards loz

 

[Parisien]

Yeah but its a lottery to get in then its going to cost you £36K in entry fees plus the rest!

Didn't think it was quite that much Frank, thought it was 6800 euro's each and the indemnity costs you get back , one doesn't have to pay for All ( the so called club Hotel bookings either , some people take motor homes ) bugger that they ask you to pay all up front months before hand , and even after having your dosh for up to 6 months still doesn,t gaurantee you get in , and at some point they return your dosh when they feel like it , I thought £7500 per person covered all the costs



regards loz

 

[Parisien]

I understood this was for 5 people all in entry fees, hotels, meals etc...what I was told by someone who was entered for this year then messed around then they pulled out
