This is where a good story becomes a great story. I particularly like 'eye sweet' http://www.velocetoday.com/eisenstark-siata-part-2-the-big-ouch/ .....but it's still not over...
Suspension hasn't been started yet,Ken,it's dribbling oil all over a Lotus. Marc still has the 365,I believe. He's been in the UK fixing a certain 308 for Red Len.
For those interested the HAGI Classic car market wrap for 2017 http://www.historicautogroup.com/?utm_source=HAGI+Newsletter&utm_campaign=7c081b70b0-HAGI_Indices_Update_May_2017&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_957c7c4b4e-7c081b70b0-119173749 The HAGI Top Index closed 2017 with a gain of 1.66%, up 0.79 points (0.23%) in December. 2017 performance constitutes the slowest annual index growth since 1999. Some market segments have seen price declines during the year. The trend of the HAGI Top Index was again broadly reflected by other HAGI sub-indices (see the table above for details). The MBCI (Mercedes-Benz Classic Index) was the major exception with a performance of 8.72% during 2017, up 0.11% in December. While transaction volumes and price advances have declined in 2017 there have been no signs of a deflating price bubble.
Sadly Its the way of the future, smaller forced induction I suppose it fits with article, but a 2 stroke Flat 12 http://www.evo.co.uk/features/20589/how-to-get-more-power-exploring-the-future-of-the-internal-combustion-engine
have you heard about Mazda's compression-ignition petrol engine? 25% more power with 25% less fuel consumption. In production in 2019.

Well it appear the voluntary administration didn't go too well.... http://www.afr.com/news/politics/national/auction-house-mossgreen-collapses-owing-12m-to-staff-wealthy-collectors-20180117-h0jk4g "The vendors of rare artworks, including a Russell Drysdale painting sold for $3 million, are among the unsecured creditors of Mossgreen and appear unlikely to be paid after the prominent auction house collapsed on Wednesday with $12 million in debts" Almost $6 million is owed to vendors who sold paintings and collectibles through the company. Around 30 of the firm's 40 staff were made redundant by administrator BDO on Wednesday, including the co-founders Paul Sumner and his wife Amanda Swanson." I always thought that the proceeds of auction sales were held in trust for the vendor by the auction house, specifically to prevent the vendor from being an unsecured creditor. Similar to real estate auctions.... M
Having spent a large deal of time in Auction Houses both here and in the UK you hit the nail on the head.........Shallow end of the gene pool.....I must admit I thought MG was one of the better ones....
