I think this is one of those where its best to agree to disagree. It must just purely be a heart over logic thing.
IMO this is a better ornament (its definately a better car too!)

Don't get me started on RS500's, all I'll say is that they are one bloody expensive engine, lets face it the sierra shaped wrapping ain't worth shit

arent we forgetting that something is worth whatever people are prepared to pay for it. Thus if there is some mug out there willing to fork out 8 grand for it, thats what its worth!

take your £ 8000 and buy a basic corsa/fiesta/clio etc..

The new car will have electric window...air con...enhanced safety...better fuel economy...
I could go on...
Not a good comparison IMHO
£ 8000 wouldnt get you a 1.0 3dr life without metallic corsa goin by list prices. which one of the two has the ultra cool factor + a classic car insurance policy etc?

Yeah but you would lose the profit in the money you'd spend insuring it
