Far less than the equivalent Ford.
True but it still seems about 10x the price of a decent one in my mind. Much like Fords tbh.

Already on my watch list and I think that was because it was a lot more but now relisted as reduced.

There's a gap in the market now that this firm has gone bust but 60,000 feet over Doncaster doesn't sound quite as exotic.

"Fly 60,000 feet high over Cape Town in the legendary English Electric Lightning. The supersonic British fighter climbs toward space with amazing speed. Often compared to the F104 Starfighter that NASA has used to train astronauts for space travel, the Cold War-era Lightning can climb upward at an incredible 50,000 feet per minute."

Well it couldn’t end worse than the original. One of their Lightnings speared in after a (typical for a Lightning) fire started. Pilot killed following an ejection failure. No flights since, too dodgy even for Cape Town.

From near that there London... wonder if it's another ULEZ casualty? Vendor's caps lock appears to be stuck on.
