I very nearly bought another P1 about a year ago after I sold my first FK2. It was a one owner, 64k mile example with full service history. It was being sold on a no reserve auction on ebay on behalf of a recently deceased uncle, by his nephew. I went and test drove it, had a full on poke around, was generally enthusiastic and positive about it.The guy said he wanted it to go to someone who was a fan of the brand and would continue to love and look after it like his uncle did, and not to go to a car collector to sit in a warehouse. I couldn't have ticked more boxes.
I offered him £19k, and he spoke to 'the family' but said they were going to let the auction run. I said I've got £19k, can drive it away now, the auction ended the following day and I was (and would be) the only person to view it.
I was outbid and it sold for £21k the following day. I contacted him a few days later to ask if it was a genuine buyer etc and if it had definitely gone, and he rather sheepishly and pretty annoyed, told me it had gone to a car collector to sit in a storage shed.
In the end, I'm kind of glad I didn't get it, yes it's a great iconic car, but it would just be a pile of grief to keep it running and the tin worm is getting them now.
