    Wow didn’t realize it could be worth that much ! My initial thoughts was £25-£30k Think I may have underestimated its value to the garage owner. Well if anyone offers me £35-40k its going !

    Spare wheel cover turned up today, another ebay bargain due to a few small scratches it cost me £41.
