UK example sells for almost £50,000
The buyer of a rare micro car produced on the Isle of Man is hoping to restore the vehicle to its former glory.
A Peel P50 was sold mid-week at Brightwells in Leominster for almost £50,000.
Only 30 of the cars are thought to be still around today - and $160,000 was paid for a fully restored P50 two years ago.
Auctioneer at Brightwells, Toby Service, told Manx Radio a lot of interest was shown in the item when it went under the hammer - with many of the prospective buyers having the same idea:
Mobility Scooter's over 2,000 day wait for a bus comes to an end
Examination phase of offshore windfarm plans to get underway
Important for voters 'to be able to hear from election candidates'
Is cash 'king' or is it time for change?
