Time-warp Herald coming up for auction soon, could it get near its upper estimate of £15k?

Yeah I just read this on the BBC website and thought 15k was a bit low. I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't go for double that.

Oh just read elsewhere that there are a pair of Triumph Dolomites from the same collection in the auction, one with 78 and the other 80 miles from new.

Just found the auction website. I can't believe some of the estimates they seem really low. Got some interesting cars though. The two Dolomites are like new. I got the mileage wrong on one though, I was a bit too high, should have been 69 miles.

The problem with such cars is that you can only put them in a museum. You can't use them or you have a depreciating asset.

It'll be interesting to see how it does, I was looking at an ad the other day for a restored Herald saloon. Asking price was a smidge under £10k, it came with receipts for £52k Shocked
