Re: IML: imperials europe

with the current market of american classics such as it is in the uk it would appear that my very own 60 crown be worth £10,000 - only trouble is finding a worthy buyer, as most go for caddy's , chevy's or buicks as they are most spoke of. even though the imperial is of a higher standing. the hot rod market is up at the moment along with trucks. classics are seen as money pits due to keeping them stock and upto scratch. most of all the cost of purchase and shipping to uk then restoration of wotever usually exceeds the final bill of sale ,hence the so called high cost in europe. yes dealers do ask a lot but even private sales are not low. for instance i would like to know if there are any class 3/2 60 crown 4dr p/l driving in the uk or europe ? bet not !

rare as rocking horse s*** ! - aye!!!

Gentlemen, Just a note on prices on this side of the Atlantic, both in Germany and UK.

It seems cars over here might be (and I emphasise might) might be considered highly priced, perhaps for 3 reasons.

Owners in the know tend insure their cars at high value.  In case of loss, they know they need to recover the cost of shipping - and the finding too.

Proportionally, and sadly, a good many cars over here are unfortunately a bit on the rough side. Our notoriously bad weather and puny garages don?t help.  The well looked after Top Cars, in great shape, are very much in the minority.  Hence the higher values for these.

Thirdly, because we?ve fewer folk over here who are fully up to speed and knowledgeable, SOME vendors try it on.

Regards to all, and a truly great club

Rick, London

Wow! That comes out to $23,296.10 in U.S. dollars. Plus the cost of
shipping. Sounds like a lot to me. But then my budget resembles a
shoestring with the ends missing.
