Donald Osborne on Buying Right, Selling Right, and Living Right

Alex has a lively interview with none other than Donald Osborne (@ zagato67 on BaT): ASA accredited senior appraiser, TV personality, principal of Automotive Valuation Services, and consulting director for the Audrain Automobile Museum. They talk about BaT's start as an amalgamation of interesting POSes; maximum impact for minimal outlay; the similarities between a car for sale and the ideal political candidacy; sage advice for sellers on BaT and elsewhere; the art of self-editing; the right price for the wrong car; multitasking, the car guy way; ignoring one's own hard-earned advice; cars as an investment in happiness; driving Derek Drinkwater's Le Monstre replica at Goodwood; and adventures in Sicily on the old Targa Florio route. We'll have Donald back for more! Links for things mentioned in this episode: 2:11 1960 Fiat 500 D Tetto Apribile BaT listing 21:45 What's My Car Worth?
