  Although any Mercedes-Benz SSKL is considered a replica as none of the original five examples have survived, the SSKL on offer at Battersea Park had been created using only original S Type parts. This very special car, commissioned in the late 1950s by then General Motors Design chief Bill Mitchell, attracted a final bid of £1,061,625. From the Abba Kogan collection, the 1931 REO Racing Car, raced extensively in Argentina in the 1930s by local hero Ernesto Blanco, fueled a frenzy of telephone bidding from Argentina which only ended when the original estimate was doubled to £470,000.

  Anti-Speed Campaigners and the Lessons of History 20 Nov 2001 (News)
  The Conservative Poll tax was deeply unpopular and attracted a lot of criticism but the instigators were elected representatives and not faceless public servants on a mission as is the case with the New Speeding Tax.

Could it be that unless they represent the interests of the public that elected them by retaking control of the country from these marginalised groups, history will record many failed political careers and even a democratic systems that we used to know and love?
