Market commentary
This is an expensive XKE 4.2 Roadster, but its quality and presentation are so good the bidders can be forgiven for letting their enthusiasm get the better of their reason. Even at the high estimate, $65,000 less than the successful hammer bid, this would have been a solid value and a joy to own.
