if i bought a vauxhall lotus carlton for £10.000! how much would it be...

[Stephen S]

...worth in 20 years time?
i don`t think it would lose money as it`s a part of history?
0-60 in 5 secs for an 18 year old family car!
sorry chuckler!
I mean in a museum?
think again! hello mate!
there`s one on the vauxhallownersnetwork.co.uk website!
I think what i`m trying to say is will it be a classic?

Don't waste your money - look at triumph, or even better, Mercedes 350SL!

 

[Chuckler]

In 20 years time petrol will not be the main choice of fuel. It will be so expensive only a few wealthy people will be able to afford it.

 

[Think again]

I knew a man once who bought a brand new Morris minor, had it wax oiled and crated and left it in there for 25 years.
Presume if you did that it could be worth a little.
But i can't imagine you could buy a decent Lotus Carlton now.

A reconditioned engine gota be worth a fortune. As for the car, not much really.
I loved the car. A man in my area had one and we used to chase him through the town till the motorway and he'd vanished. 170mph Its actually capable of 250 it's the engine that's limited.
I think a reconditioned Engine ma-by £10000. But an overhaul is going to be £5000.
