Huh. I didn't know that. How reliable are those engines or are they just for racing? 0.110 is a lot to grind off o_O.
 
Too bad it is not here in the states, that price seems like a steal for the condition of the car.

It's an auction. So the price is still rising.
The car has been to auction twice in the last few years and prominent UK auction houses and found no buyer.

The car is missing many of its rare HLM parts and while it has some period competition history, that was largely erased in its restoration.

It's also heavily customised beyond the period HLM spec...

Last time I saw it advertised at a fixed price it was in the £35-45k range.
