Nice tho they are, how does the saying go ?

That's why I'm building my own from scratch

Cost aside, tbh that’s one extremely well done conversion and personally I'd prefer owning the replica. When you add up all the parts you’d be
hard pushed to not spend 30k

It does look nice, and well built from the pics, but he's not exactly tempting the bidders in.....

I've never really understood those 'angry' sellers. Of course you're going to get those stupid questions from spotty 17
year-olds who have no intention of buying... it's what they do (whether you ask them not to or otherwise).

I've known several people over the years who owned various Ferrari’s and Lamborghini’s, all of which had horror stories of maintenance costs,
breakdowns, I mind an old friends very problematic white countach and how many bits were literally falling off it (like the headlining falling on his
head  ), I'd go for a good replica any day, especially if it was Jap based

I've built a countach with a V8 rover. Cost me £18K in 1987.
This car is very difficult to create.
A mate of mine owns Parrallel designs and a turn key Diablo (Audi V6 turbo or V12 bmw) starts at around £40K upwards.
£30K for a drive away car is not that bad.

yeah the ad especially the wording, leaves a huge amount to be desired, hardly possible to do a worse job of it. Instantly just brings to mind a
ghastly, spotty, white tracksuit wearing chav desperate to get some more drug money or a hookers pimp

Sounds like a scam to me.
Why would you list an ad but not give any information about the car? - THEN say no stupid questions!?!?!?
Sounds like a right dickhead to me. Even if i wanted the car, im not so sure id buy it.
Kindest Regards,
Richard.

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the
error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

thats the problem with e-bay, It's very easy to get hold of picture or u-tube vids etc and just make up everything without actually owning the
item, then get folk to send money through paypal or cheques

Think the car for sale on E-bay is extreme sports cars ex-demonstrator vehicle click link to see. Oh and extreme sports cars are based in
hull/Yorkshire, so it looks like the pics similar to ones used on their site, and the phone number is the same one as is listed on extreme sports cars

to be fair it looks like a great bit of copy work. theyve gone to a lot of trouble to get it as close as they can :
making the moulds
not my cup of tea i must say but i appreciate the work and quality (or at least as far as i can see from pics)
