What value and history does an older Montblanc Carrera fountain pen from the 1970s have?

Montblanc Montblanc — general FAQ entry

The Carrera is a school or use fountain pen produced in the 1970s in the lower price segment of Montblanc. Collectors estimate the market value in normal preservation state at about 30 euros or less, since the model is neither rare nor particularly coveted. Up to 1991 Montblanc made the entire spectrum from inexpensive school pens to Meisterstück; the brand's luxury reputation refers above all to later production. The Carrera is therefore primarily suitable as a use writing instrument and not as an investment.
