just spotted 3 avons being sold on e-bay one unfinished pinto going cheap, one finished zetec reasonable and a busa powered one which i reconise as being up not long ago and is up for(wait for it )£20,000
took me ten minutes to stop laughing.

20k for an Avon!! Whats it made out of, Gold??

Thats totally bananas!

Can't find it on fleabay however. Do you have a link?

Try this

I think the 20k is to stop bidding, as the ad says "do not bid", it's an advert.
+ no dry sump as far as I can see??

Good luck to them and no further comments from me.

Pat...

I asked (via eBay) how much and about the lack of dry sump, here's the answer:

hi there , this car cost me over 14k so im looking for a decent offer to recoup some of the cash i put into her. This engine has a fully baffled sump with 2 trap door setup. I can assure you this does not surge. Testing can be arranged but bring a change of pants!

Any comments?

they also sell pants on e-bay unused or soiled..seriously
