[Spridgets] Bugeye Values

[Guy Weller]

David,
I have no idea from the UK how these things work, but can you deduct
"delivery" from the price (or their valuation)

I seem to recall that you paid someone to fly to CA to collect the car, and
then drive it back overland. I believe they even had to take a co-driver
with them because of the distance involved and the state limits on the hours
an individual is allowed to drive in a day. Then there was fuel, motel
expenses....
Can't have been cheap!

Guy

It is $25 for anything over 11 years old AND under $15,000. I have never
bought a Spridget that did not qualify. They are telling me that it falls
into the 15 to 20G category. $750 tax, plus $73 late payment penalty, plus
$16 of interest, minus the $25 that I did pay.
