Back in November 2000, a green Mk II Tiger was sold on eBay for $23,600.
Particulars:  92,000 miles, NO hardtop, no side stripes, and "some items
have been changed: steering wheel, mag wheels, Jaeger gauges, additional
electric fan, side mirrors."  Reputed to be a "California car" with "no rust
whatsoever."  The photos that were provided and additional photos on a Yahoo
web site showed a very pretty car.  The eBAy item number was 506009531.

One data point!

OK, folks, time for some networking.  There've  been a few comments about
the
$58K price on that Mk2, and what's reasonable or not, so lets do some
research.

Does anyone know any recent sale prices for top quality Mk 1/1A's?  For top
quality Mk2's?

I don't mean asking prices.  I mean the real sale price.  Lets not include
cars with famous histories, or other price altering features.  And lets not
include unverified fourth hand rumors, or auction prices where booze was
served. Names are not required.

It used to be really easy to get "upside down" in a Tiger restoration (not
while cornering, but when the restoration costs more than you could recover
in
a sale).  What's reality these days?

Stu
