LOCOST 7 NOT CATTERHAM WESTFIELD KIT CAR R1 ENGINE on eBay (end time 14-Nov-10 20:25:41 GMT)
Doesn't look like a Dutton to me either... Could it be a heavily modded Dutton chassis with 7esque bodywork?

Is there a prize for finding crap stuff on ebay?

No, it couldn't. Dutton chassis have straight sides from front to rear not the characteristic seven parallel side to the cockpit then tapering
toward the front like the one in the pic

If you have to ask, there is no way to explain it to you.

Come to think of it, why bother debating most things. I have my opinion and I'll stick to it........you have yours and you're welcome to
it......
Ringing cars has been going on for many years. Just like theft, ID theft, shoplifting, muggings, murders etc. as long as no-one gets hurt,
where's the problem..?

& after all whats the point in having a forum if you're going to start discussions on it!!!
I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator
headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names
furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours.

There's no way of knowing from that Ad if this is a ringer so to suggest it is is unfair to the vendor. It could well be genuine...

It's not a Dutton. If you know Dutons you can indeed see that from looking at the ad. Have a look at some Duttons and see if you can see any
with a bend in the body side.
They also have Triumph front suspension

SVA/IVA test do have elements of the trivial, such as checking the radius on reflectors etc, but there are some bloody serious things that they check
like making sure the brake balance isn't going to make you spin if you brake gently on a slippery bend.
Lots of people here go to a lot of time and trounble and expense to get thier cars through the test, seeing some tw*t dodge it is annoying not just
for the reason given above.

It's registered as a Dutton, but it isn't a Dutton, so I guess that's pretty much irrefutable.

is there really any discusssion to be had? if its a ringer, its the same discussion as is had about twice a week on here when these posts get made.
they don't solve anything. it won't be a different outcome to the last dutton on ebay.

These sort of posts do no harm, and if you were a newb thinking of buying then it's possible you would come on this forum as well trawl eBay.
So I think it's helpful.
Like most forums, if there is a thread that you dislike, don't read it. Or post in it. Or read it, post in it, reply.

So, its registered as a Dutton, so what ?
if every now and a again, a car appears on ebay, that in some eyes is registered wrongly, whats the problem
to me it means, there a thousands out there that happy owners are driving a few miles a year, and are as happy as pigs in poo
I for one am not interested, if someone buys it, with out doing there homework, whos problem is it ??
