    How much is the Tiger worth to buy? Assuming it has a value?

    How much would you pay Adam for the ride?

    Not really my cup of tea but it did get me thinking how much I'd pay for a return trip to Dunkirk on MTB 102 on a anniversar.

    £XM+ to Priceless, it's unique.

    Nobody's paying me, but I'll put my grammar Nazi head aside ;) and say 'I'm a tight bastard, and mostly skint, so maybe a ton'.

    You'd pay loads as long as most of it was at full chat... (Take note MTB102 Trust. -_-)

    Personally I feel they should have started it at 99p, just to attract smaller bidders and more interest/word of mouth that for '99p you could ride in the Tiger' in theory...

    But yeah... whoever gets the ride, I hope they properly camp it up whilst in the commanders seat...

    Like all auctions, the end result is what a person is prepared to pay.

    Like Adam, with three growing daughters, money is at a premium in our house!

    it turned out to be 3500 pounds sterling.
    For one ride ? a whole day in the command seat ?

    Still, hmm , too much for my taste.
