Fair enough… yeh defo rate the GTO, elegant yet brutal somehow in how its looks. The dials… love the dials.

Question is if the 250 was worth only 100k, would you still want it then over something else?
Yes, absolutely without question. When I saw that particular 250GTO at Oulton Park back in '82 I was transfixed. I knew about the GTOs rarity and mystique but had no idea and indeed gave no thought as to its value, I was only 16. Its looks were everything to me and still are. Coincidentally, when I saw that example it was only four years after Nick Mason bought his GTO in 1978 for the paltry sum of £35,000 !

Considerably less than £100,000 !
