The classic car market is funny.
Some cars I think are not that great are fetching silly prices, yet others I would love to own are relatively cheap.
XJS's are getting collectable now, and I can't believe the prices on Lotus Carlton's. I was tempted to buy one when I was in the UK around '01. Show the Aussie V8 Commodore brigade up with a car based off the same chassis!
They were cheap then!
Same with RS2's.
Both are more than I'm willing to pay now!
I might have to scratch the XJS and/or the M635CSI itch while they're still "affordable"!

2009 Volvo XC90 V8 R Design - has a louder more obnoxious exhaust than the S8, sounds great! Love this thing - Q7 was double the price, and certainly not double the car!
