<p>Am I the only one that thinks this car being 'the last of ... whatever' adds no particular cachet? I'd rather have a well-preserved, low-mileage survivor--with rough but original paint--or a top-of-the-line concours resto, in the middle of the production
pack. But, my cars are for driving, not bragging rights (well, except for the 'M').<br>

<p class="ox-bfd479d44a-MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; color: #002060;">Yes, that much would be correct. However, after the statement quoted below, I received this from another source at the auction house:</span></p>

<p class="ox-bfd479d44a-MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; color: #002060;">My name is ---------- and I do quite a lot of work for Silverstone Auctions preparing catalogue entries and helping to sort out the inevitable
mistakes that occur when a dozen or so people are under pressure to close a catalogue with 200 cars.</span></p>
<p class="ox-bfd479d44a-MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; color: #002060;">I am 67 and have owned a number of big Healeys including an early 100/4 with a competition history,(which I bought in 1966), so as a 'Marque' enthusiast,
I am as keen as you to ensure that what we commit to paper is accurate. I have read ------------ response to you and it's patently completely inaccurate, however, he does not claim to know what he is talking about, and is too young to remember the ins and
outs of the Donald Healey Motor Company. In fairness, having had a quick look at our vendor's 'Entry Form' there are a number of claims on there which Richard took at face value but which now may be incorrect.</span></p>
<p class="ox-bfd479d44a-MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; color: #002060;">The CCA catalogue has now been printed so it's too late to change that, but we can change the Website and issue a 'Saleroom Notice' prior to the
auction.</span></p>
<p class="ox-bfd479d44a-MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; color: #002060;">I propose that I have a good look at the information provided to us by the vendor and form some opinions. I will share these with you and see what
you think. It's patently obvious that you have considerable knowledge of the subject and, I guess, we will be guided by you, but as I said, it appears the vendor is under the impression that what he has told us is correct and the team were excited to be handling
a car with such provenance.</span></p>
<p class="ox-bfd479d44a-MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; color: #002060;">If it appears that the car, although a stunning example, is not what he claimed, then we may have to revise the 'monetary value', which may not
go down too well, but, given your information, we are obliged to correct any statements we have made and we are keen to ensure a happy purchaser on the day.</span></p>
<p class="ox-bfd479d44a-MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS'; color: #002060;">I will deal with this from now on and if you can give me 24 hours, I will get back to you with as much information as I can find at this end.</span></p>
