Maybe I missed something, but it was my impression that the car in question
was said to be rust free, but did not run and had "normal" wear throughout.
 I haven't ever seen a deteriorated, non-drivable example sell for anywhere
near that kind of money.  Maybe prices are just lower where I live (North
Carolina, USA).  On the other hand, as a GTV owner, I wouldn't be unhappy
if a non-running GTV really were worth that kind of money; that should make
my thoroughly presentable and drivable car worth, let's see...
