I have a terible decision to make... Sell our 86 Sprint QV... or find a rationale for keeping it.

If I can get a tow bar for it...it can then be the tow car for my little yacht... and I have a rationale for keeping it.

I Havn't been in here for ages and missed out on one last year.

Silver 2000 GTV 1973, Black Sprint QV 1986, Red Sprint QV 1985 (donor), Red 147 JTD... and maybe a Red Spyder?

Judging by the ten minutes between posting your for sale pics and this thread, you have the same desire to sell as I did when I briefly advertised my GTV. I got around it in the end by explaining to the War Room that my GTV (like your Sprint) is increasingly rare and therefore soon to be an appreciating classic, so the only way to get my investment back is to hang on to it.

Good solid economic rationale for retention - how could your missus argue?

You read between the line O Grand Poobah.

But it is out there... and should the right person come along... I wave it good bye.

Fair enough and best of luck - whichever way it ends up going.

Looks a cracking little motor.
