Recently a batmobile was purchased for 100 or 150k by a chap named Paul Garlick. Not our one though. Could be the same one.

I know I saw that. It sounds silly but little things like that put me off, I just think 'numpty' and don't believe anything else I read after that. It does look great though. Fantastic for racing round the city streets in the early hours, the roads would have to be wet though for the true Hollywood look.

Advert states it was finished only weeks ago - yet one of the photos is stamped with a feb 04 date - and that is of a well advanced build stage.

Four years plus in the making.

Hmmmmmmmm

Thats the one Z Cars built a few weeks back, in fact you can just about make out the Skyline powered Cerb in a couple of the pics. Looks like quite a beast, though the first one they did, the one in that auction isn't road legal I'm sure - twas on the local BBC news. So I guess you're paying for a new build with that advert...

There is a forum dedicated to people building these - so not sure about it being the only one in the world.

It says about hiring it out for weddings etc. Presumably they mean towing it on a trailer, because there is no way that thing is road legal, despite what they imply in the advert.

All sorts of reasons, but let's start with the most visible, which is the lack of windscreen wipers!

This car is the highest form of status symbol! If you own a Bugatti Veyron and display it next to this, you will find 100% of the people that view the 2 cars will be immediately drawn to this car over the Bugatti Veyron! There is quite literally NOTHING out there that can touch this car for style, design, shape, sexyness, notoriaty and WOW FACTOR!!!
