    Good deal?

    How does it compare to a Holman and Moody continuation MKII at $750000. Is the market stronger in the USA for a MKIV? Because it was the first American car to win Le Mans with an all American crew? I take it that the MKIV price must add commission on top of the total? Regards Allan
