    Am I missing something?

    It's not that this is particularly ugly (it's probably fine if you like faux open tourers with undersized wheels and headlights) but WHY does he think he'll get £10k for a restoration case with no engine?

    It's a 52 year old car and everything works, just not always at the same time.......and it's probably about to get jealous!

    The opinions expressed in my posts may not be made in a sound mind and should be taken in the spirit intended, Jack Daniels is fine. Autism isn't something you get or can be 'cured of', it is the way we are wired, differently.

    Hmm, its not in the best condition, but the Adams Roadster was quite a sought-after car in its day. Designed by Dennis Adams of Probe fame, these Jag XJ6-based cars went on sale in 1986. They were usually sold as "turn-key" cars to a very high specification, with aero-styled bumpers and engine-turned dashboards etc.

    As you say, probably not worth £10k in this condition, but in the pantheon of "neo-classics", this one is supposed to rate very highly (along with Dave Peppers AF Sports and a handful of others whose names I can't remember...)
