Collector restores Concorde's nose cone and now hopes to sell for a meagre £250,000. Cool Cool

Will be interesting to see if he gets anything like £250k for it.
A decomissioned F3 Tornado recently sold at auction for £33k and a Harrier for £92k - both of which saw active service Blink

The report does say a nose cone was bought in 2003 and that fetched £310K so suppose it's possible he'll get what he's asking... He'll be luck though....Cool Cool
