Facel Vega HK500
Following on from my previous posts about The Most Beautiful Cars of All Time and The Most Beautiful Cars… Part 2, it was nice to come across a picture of a 1958 Facel Vega HK500 in Saturday’s Telegraph. Here’s a link to the article: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/motoring/columnists/mike-rutherford/8604077/Mr-Money-Buying-classic-cars-as-an-investment.html
Oddly, the picture in print on Saturday — a pretty daffodil-yellow car — was not the same as the one shown online (and above).
Strange that the car is expected to fetch only £20,000-£30,000 at auction. Perhaps it’s a rust bucket? I would have thought its rarity value is such that any example would have made more. Perhaps it will!
