PRACTICAL CLASSICS

[Alan Duncan]

OK Practical Classics have a new Price Guide, what do we all think about it.
myself i see they have the GTs away from the STs now so the 16GT gets extra value, which is right.
I see they took the grade 2 GT from ebay and took the price guide for grade 1 from there, in fact that car was a lower grade 2,they did not print the TA23 gt that went for 10 grand, that was grade 1.
So myself i would think, double it and add a few notes and they will be near it.
I would like to here what you all think so i can post it to them.

Yes Al, had a look at the Oct. issue. Allowing that the top values are for Con. 1 Cars, very good but not Concours winners or the very best, still see his values as a bit low. What about £4K and £6k for Con 1 in ST and GT respectively on first generation 22/23 Celicas. Even more difficult on Con 2/3 cars. Suspect the trim/ panel availability problems highlighted in his info. panel widen the gap in values. Pity too he does,nt subdivide a bit more - seperating the coupe from liftback. In my view the coupe ahead of the l/back in value. Appreciate he has space limitations but he does it on some other makes. Still, good publicity for us.
