DHV571D 16 Posted September 2, 2018 I got dragged to the dark side Nige... I couldn't justify the "Old Ford" prices, it stopped being fun! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnny boy 164 Posted September 3, 2018 Yes I've noticed the parts prices of secondhand stuff is rather dear. What do you think is driving it ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DHV571D 16 Posted September 3, 2018 Speculators. People that find the value of their car more important than the fun. Disinterested traders forcing the prices up way above what anybody can believe. To name a few... Common denominator is having little interest in the cars but the need & greed to make money out of our hobby.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GhiaMk4/5 207 Posted September 3, 2018 Sorry, off topic, bit a straight 6 Triumph engine is a nice sound, my dad had the 2500 pi saloon, my uncle had a 2500tc estate, they are just engine noises l remember as a child !! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
