Bonkers, to state the obvious, it is never worth that.

Dreamers.

A crazy asking price for that and the several other similar Minis they have advertised. Seems like JD Classics are back in the bulls**t business.

Perhaps if it belonged to one of the Beatles and they had participated in a historical event in it and it was made of gold, it might just be with that price, but otherwise it’s clearly not worth it.

It won't be bought by a Mini enthusiast , some people judge an item by its asking price so it will disappear into some private collection were it will pass into another private collection. If it was aimed at Mini enthusiasts there would be pictures of the bonnet and tailgate open but those pictures aren't as pretty . There are plenty of "more valuable" pieces of art out there that I won't hang on my wall but they will continue to change hands for stupid money.

Interesting location of the eyeball air vents and does anybody know what the rectangle hole is for on the inside of the passenger door?

Personally I can't believe they are starting to use the J.D Classics name again after the s#it show that was, but bargains they ain't, and if you see the cars close up ( I'm local ) they're not that special, but as the old saying goes ' A fool and his money are easily parted'

the prices are ridiculous, but there are a lot of people with more money than sense that would pay for these overpriced cars.
