Strange how they dropped the word 'Rickman' from the title in the first listing: MK Track Race Car 2013 Blisteringly
Quick Rickman Just 4000 Miles

The reason they may have dropped the Rickman bit is that I messaged them and told them it's a ringer  I hate all this sort of crap, I've
got a classic mini as well and the market is full of late model cars on pre 60's plates .

Someone paid nearly 6 grand for a dodgy motor. I hope it bites them on the bum in the future.

We are lucky enough to understand the legalities of blatent ringers. Not all of Joe public does. If anything I feel sorry for them.

Its a shame you can no longer see buyers bidding on these things to be able to drop them a word to the wise....

To drive backwards as fast as you can forward? Reminds me of the jokes about Italian tanks from WW2

Rickman was a manufacturer of motorbike chassis in the 70s. They also produced a couple of kit cars.

I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure

The Rickman Ranger was a Ford based pseudo 4x4.

Some poor person has bought a lemon. Will probably be fine until he/she goes to mot it next year.
I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.

He's re listed it due to time wasters and dreamers, probably someone taking the time to check it out and dreaming of a correctly registered
car.
Bit off topic but can anyone id the bonnet bulge on that car for me, it looks just what I need to cover the V8 in my 944.

Perhaps a 1967 spartan would be a better buy
kit car
or a DAX from 1960

Q482TWN
the MOT history shows it as a Green MK Indy registered on 01/01/1971 - so not much better 
also has quite a few MOT failures too - nothing says a quality build like a string of MOT failures from day 1.....
