I've seen that car in person at Lime Rock. IIRC, owner's name is Paul?

 

Nice car, but I'd swap the wheels for something more traditional ASAP.

 

Again, the more I see these things for sale, the more I'm convinced Morgan made out very well with Orange.

Is that Dick Brink's own personal car at one time? It sure looks like it right down to the wheels.

Yes, that was on Dick Brink's site when I was looking for a car 2 years ago-the wheels are unforgettable! Pure Ghetto:).

 

Al: Big difference between asking price and sold price. As I recall D Brink wanted $32K a few years ago and probably sold it for less. Now the car has more miles and the seller wants more. We'll see. And I recall a car just like yours selling for $32.5K the year before you sold yours (I am still mad I didn't buy it!).

This is Paul Fluckiger's car that was also posted for some strange reason on a UK web site for a whopping 35,000 *GBP*. So I guess the number is just a placeholder for whatever a buyer is willing to pay.

 

Similar Birkins have moved for under $30k and given the current economy I would be surprised if more. But you never know if that hits a nerve and somebody just wants it.

I know those wheels hit a nerve with me!

Nice looking car!!

 

We as well, are victims of the wheel choice.

our car was originally one that was handled by mr Brink, but i suspect the owner had something to do with the choice.

they are..well.. less than se7en,,,and someday when the budget allows, they will be replaced!

Did not hit reserve at $18.2k highest bid. Barely even half of what they were looking for in the Buy It Now of $35k. Is the market this soft, or is it this car? Birkin's seemed to have no issues hitting the mid-$20's even recently.
