PeteH Posted August 26, 2021 Report Share Posted August 26, 2021 Intersting is their assessment of price range.!. OTT in my opinion?. More intersting might be the Herald Estate, But 2/3 grand for a Project?. The 13/60 Convertible is also priced way over IMHO?. I paid less than half that in 2015, and mine was at least a runner!. AND the MOT had only just run out!. Pete 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The prototype Bond may fetch a good price though due to it being a one off according to the Blurb. I've e-mailed Guy Singleton the Bond register contact, I hope they all get saved and restored as they look very original and unmolested, they even look like they have the original Hoods? They are all rare cars these days and need saving. Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there is a big difference between a sensible price and the sort of optimism being exhibited here. Even if the latest insurance values (TSCC) are £1000. (projects). It will be interesting to see if they make the estimates?. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrick Taylor Posted August 27, 2021 Report Share Posted August 27, 2021 To a Bond enthusiast, the prototype is genuinely priceless: none were known to survive, and I have only seen a couple of photos of it, taken in the factory. What it is worth is a different matter. But I doubt there is another one on the planet, so if two people want it, who knows what it might fetch? The 2-litre Equipes are rare, but then they always were: fewer than 2500 were made. Many have succumbed to terminal rot over the years but as yet they remain a very niche car. There are better ones out there for not much more money -for the time being, at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Flinn Posted September 6, 2021 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2021 All the Bonds sold, the Prototype for £843, the Others for only £787 and £506? All Bargains I reckon, as they looked very Original and unmolested? I hope they all get restored and not broken for spares☹️ Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
