If I win the rollover on Saturday, I am more likely to buy the TA or perhaps this http://www.barrywalker.com/details.asp?id=256. I suppose my dream cars are possible, with a bit of luck and I am more than happy with the ones I have (I just like the VSCC elligible stuff). My father says he can remember nice TCs being advertised for around £350. At the time, pre war T, P, J & M types would have been worth less. I wish he had bought one :lol: :!: A friend of my grandparents had a new MG J2. He had a slight bump with a horse, on his way to London. Abingdon was en route, so he called in. They repaired/replaced the damaged front wing, "With our compliments Sir" :!:

In the late 1950s/early 60s, one of these went for £1000 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfGQb7LxuK4. Quite a bit then but not the kind of fortune one would fetch today.
