to get an idea where the price is coming from, here are the statistics:
the car itself (not cheap), that came in with a valid mot (no advisory).

440 labour hours @ only £25/ h (do the math)
the final/ full restoration invoice is £14. 500 (whithout quite a few things)!
no expenses were spared during the restoration process, everything used was top brand, from the first drop of oil, to the last 3 coats of lacquer that went on it!
i have done the following (to name a few):
fully stripped down, in/ out/ suspension, including every single bit of trim, even the rear windscreen!
