Not at that price.
The new owner will have more outlay pretty soon after buying as well.

"everything on it is original, even down to the tyres, nothing has been changed."

What must they be like?

And what about the cambelt?

I suppose there's a chance that a collector would want to add to their fleet.

And the fact the engines in them had a tendency to let go.

Re. the bottom one, it's apparently one of only 500 made.
Is it perhaps a Subaru Chimera (not to be confused with TVR, but the mythical creature)?

It seems to have had the motoring equivalent of Dr. Frankenstein experimenting on it.

It's been resprayed - do my eyes deceive me or is the engine compartment (original?) blue?

Why has the engine been "de-tuned" ?????????

'Retirement' suggests the owner is of the older generation, yet there's a subsystem that Lemmy would have in his car (having said that he's the same generation I suppose).

Doesn't do it for me.

Some young lad perhaps (who probably wouldn't have the cash anyway), or perhaps a Christmas or Birthday present for one.

I can see a collector buying the P1. I'd try my luck if I had a P1 with 9k on the clock.

As for the 'WR1'.......

Hope the both do well,

Spose rarity is hard to put a price on

as a seller it's easier to negoiate price down, so no harm trying a higher price first

IMHO
