£18k for an Astra you cannot use on the road either (in its current setup).

I imagine a fan has probably bought it in the hope of making some money off it in a few years time.

Or £28k for a 1993 Lotus Carlton!

To be fair considering what RS Cosworths and the like are selling for these days, and given how rare and celebrated the Lotus Carlton is, it may be worth way more than 28k in future!

Didn't TG/BBC had a policy of destroying 'reasonably priced cars' used on the track, due to the modifications on the vehicle.

Except the Classic car market is on fire right now, for some reason they don't seem to be appreciating like things with a ford badge.

I can't help but think if they're going to do it, it should be now.
