Interesting bit on Hurricane
 

Hi All

This may be old news but it just came up on the Hagerty Insurance online news letter.

Bulletproof Provenance: 1942 Hawker Hurricane comes to market
It's hard to put a price on history, but Bonhams is looking to do just that on Dec. 3. A 1942 Hawker Hurricane fighter Mk IIa #5711 (G-HURI) is scheduled to cross the block in a Collector Car and Automobilia auction at Brooklands race track in Surrey.

Hope the link works.

Cheers Phil

The article got it wrong. Hurricane # 5711 is an Mk XII and not an Mk II. Its records can be seen here. This came up on another forum about a month ago.
