at the end of the day, the bowdens own the cars, they are not being forced to sell them, and without any pressure to sell, they can ask whatever they damn well want for the cars a car isnt worth anything more than what someone is willing to pay for it, so if someone wants to pony up the $87k for EL GT P01, they drive away smiling, and the rest of you knockers can just sit there and scoff.... dont like the price someone asks? shut up and keep walking, dont talk them down with stupid offers

I would suggest at that price, they don't really want to sell but are merely testing the water to give them a good idea of the market. No one will pay either price for those 2 vehicles. In my opinion they are about 20-30% over priced. Good luck to them though either way.

Press cars a definately different to production cars. I own EB GT P02 which was driven by Kevin Bartlett from Melbourne to Sydney and written up in Wheels magazine (Sept 1993 I think). I have owned this since March 1994 when it was sold off by Ford. To say this engine was tweaked is an understatement. It revs the tacho right off the dial and has very long legs. It went so well that in 1997 when I bought my EL GT I complained to the dealer about the lack of power in the EL as both cars were suposed to have the same Kw rating and both were manuals. We eventually found out how much more powerful the EB was. Forty-five Kw. It's a good way to get decent press reports.
Cheers Keith

great thread, not sure its a good thing to here the Bowdens' losing some of their collection but i guess they have their reasons and you'd hope they'd get looked after at their new home. Keep the links coming if they decide to sell more...an interesting read at the least, wish i had spare 100K or two.
