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.
I'm not so sure Dave. There is a huge difference between a dealer slapping a £23,000 price ticket on a car and it achieving that price. I've seen that car for sale for months (maybe even a year?) so it would seem to be it is as difficult to shift as a case of herpes.

I'm struggling to see why anyone would pay that much to keep a car in storage in the hope of selling it for much more in years to come.

I'm just a simple soldier :-)
