I'm always dubious about people valuing cars (or other machines) highly just because of their rarity.

It takes all sorts though, and not all people are tightwads like I am.

My knowledge on them isn't that great Alan but i've picked up various bits of knowledge over the years on them. I was offered one very similar to that first one (the £23k one) about 30 years ago for £250 complete with "private" (ex NI ) plate. Looking at the price of the silver one above, i missed a trick there!
Someone with more money than sense will buy it just because they can then keep it in a climate controlled garage (just because they can) then sell it in years to come, probably for a much higher price, just because they can.
