My prediction is it gets bid to late 200's and doesn't make the reserve. But then I know nothing!

Gogoghia owns the Speedster which originally had the engine.

Is there an equivalent to BAT in the U.K.?

Collecting Cars is a new platform based on the same principles.

Quite good I think.

Quite good associated podcast too ( Chris Harris / Ed Lovett + guests)

Interesting as it's exactly the same format as BAT. I wonder if the same people are behind it? If not, is there an issue with their idea being copied so closely?

It’s not the same people but the guy who set it up openly described it to me as U.K. BAT.

Intruiging, I'm sure it's fine just musing really. Registered and looked already, looks good.

Perhaps a BAT with more rusty bits?
