The Ford Barn - View Single Post - '36 Cabriolet with an "18-F" prefix

You can count the RHD 36 cabriolets in the UK on the fingers of one hand. On the same hand you can count the people in the UK who could recognise an authentic 36, and they probably wouldn't buy at Bonham's. My guess is the buyer just saw a stylish drophead that looked fun to drive, and it cost less than his daily driver, so why not buy a toy? There are people out there who get 500k annual bonuses, they are driving the price inflation, mainly on the exotics.

If the buyer is actually a V8 guy and reads Fordbarn, I apologise and withdraw the above. :-)
