'Bargain Dino' anyone?

I reckon 308GT4s are there way to go; now there's a bargain Dino - I just bought this one from a cake shop in Northumberland - giallo fancy slice...

Relatively speaking I suppose, but I bought a genuine 19,500 mile one in 2002 for £14k. You'd need all of £25k to get one like that now.

Will be interested to see what it makes on the day.
Guess anybody? I'll say £45,000

They mention the housing market being overheated but what about the classic car market? I remember the crash in the classic and exotic market a fair few years ago, wasn't pretty...

I've just had a look at prices from July 1990.
Dinos were never into three figures, even then - maybe £90k tops. By comparison, Daytonas were around £225,000.
Interestingly the C and Sportscar issue I looked at has two colour adverts for UK Stratos. One is Roger Perry's blue (you know the one?) advertised at £110,000, and Karl Ludvigsen's Stratos at £105,000. Those would have been big prices at that time. There is also an advert for that yellow Dino engined Hawk at £35,000. Ten years after that, you could pick up a real Stratos for £35,000.

The GT4 is no where near as pretty as the 206/246 but it does have a certain wedgy 70s charm and I think, like the Fiat Dinos - especially the 2400 Spider which is a fantastic car and only 424 made- look undervalued when compared to the £300k Dinos which were more numerous, but I do agree, it has all become a bit silly!
