Well ofcourse Stephen, There is at least one beautiful condition 2-3 1960 Crown Imperial in Europe! It is a white 4 door Hardtop with a red interior and right now it is parked at my driveway in Ten Boer, The Netherlands. Then we have ofcourse in Germany the beautiful moonstone blue 1960 Imp of mr. Dietmar (see his page on the web). Your indication of £10.000 or 15000 Euro might well be right, that is what a good American classic is worth overhere. You only have to find one that is willing to pay that amount of money...
