Hawker Hurricane Auction

Good luck with the Spit Tangmere…..

Lets hope the £8.000 does not reflect the buyers full economy, so we can look forward to another fully restored Hurricane, maybe even airworthy.

Oh, by the way, will it be at……….nevermind.

I just can’t see that this REALLY was sold for that price. On the other hand….a brand new penthouse flat in Brighton today slashed from £485,000 to £320,000. In the same block, flats reduced from £285,000 to £165,000 and other new houses elsewhere in Kent and Sussex have had £60,000 knocked off price with a new car, luxury holiday and Stamp Duty all paid. So….a Hurricane for £8,000? Maybe. As one financial commentator said “Forget today’s bounce. The drop from a bounce is often a long one. The pain has only just begun” Pessimist? Moi? Not a bit. I am holding out for my £25,000 airworthy Spitfire I 😀

Have the city traders started short selling Hurricanes now?

Dirt cheap! Wasnt there something about the wood that was correct or something?

oh my goodness!! That is stupidly low…I could have paid that!

Or did it really sell…….??

Sold for £8,050 inclusive of Buyer’s Premium.

Ouch!
