[Tigers] Sunbeam Tiger Cost Question

[James Lindner]

I will second Chris' recommendation to remain engaged through this 
List...and other forums for that matter. Three and a half years ago I did 
exactly as Chris said and a member of this List gave me a heads up and a buy 
recommendation on a Tiger that was becoming available (Thanks Paul). It was 
an absolutely beautiful car, fully restored with only 7k miles since the 
restoration. I paid a bit more than I had originally planned, but I just 
followed the advice Chris gave to buy as much car as you can afford. I 
bought it and have been enjoying it ever since.

I know some of the valuation tools out there are a bit inflated.  The 
Valuation tool at Hagerty Insurance does not seem to bad in that regard. You 
can check it out at

Good Luck in your search.

Subject: [Tigers] Sunbeam Tiger Cost Question

Hi Everyone,

I've been becoming interested in classic cars over the last few years, and I
recently came across the Sunbeam Tiger.  Needless to say it was love at 
first
sight for a number of reasons.  I am just curious about how much it may cost
to realize my dream someday.  In a perfect world, I would find a driver that
would work for a number of years, with hopes of restoring it down the line.
What is a reasonable expectation to pay for a Sunbeam Tiger Mark 1A in
drivable condition?  I know there are different levels of restoration, but
what do you think the range for that may be?

Thank you for your help! This is a great resource!

Tucker Brown
