Quote from Matt0snap :

Yah, my friend showed me that... LOL, owner died and no one even looked inside before selling it for 10 000 pounds... Then the new ppl cut the doors and found 50 mint condition classic cars

Yeah, as JTbo said, that story is completely false, and designed to lure in unsuspecting people and make them look silly. It worked.

They're not even 'mint condition'.

And most are just old, not even worthy of the title classic.

euh have u seen the cars? some are from the 30's, look at the formula like cars, they r classic, BMW 2002, 1602 IS olditmer etc...

Old != Classic.

Plenty of 'old' cars. Classics (proper classics) are a bit rarer.

To be honest i'm too tired to argue right now, but if you checkout that list there's some real clunkers in there, as well as some real beauties.

And as always it comes down to the eye of the beholder. Old doesn't intrinsically mean classic, i'm old, but you'll not find a sane person on the planet that considers me a classic. (classic pillock maybe ?)

I'm sure there's a list of requirements somewhere than designates what can and can't be called a 'classic' car, although if i'm wrong i'm sure someone will mention it.

Arrgh, i could go on but i just can't be arsed right now (sorry, i'm tired and hungry). But, In my opinion only some of those cars i would call a classic, the others i'd simply call old and knackerd. You may well disagree, and thats fine by me, it's a free world after all, as i think Tristan said in another thread 'one mans shit hole is another mans stinky toilet' or something like that ? but you get the picture anyway.

What a sin for some of them. But at least a good few lookes like they could be restored if in the right hands.
