The experts view was that, for instance, the engine is changed after a significant event (eg a stage or race win) then that's one thing but to change the chassis and / or a substantive amount if the running gear after such a moment, and it's not driven by, say McRae, again, it can only loosely claim to be an ex-McRae car. If you follow my gist? (That's Bonhams view, not mine by the way).
yes i do, so how does the market view the POO family? think there was a few POO's 504R, 505R, maybe more not sure who jockied which one but all got totaled, whally rolled a few quattros too so there's a couple of reshell jobs. my mate just said colin mcrae truck+spares+6r4 forsale for £500k
