Taken from another PH thread. eBay ad seems to have finished or I can't find it, but hopefully someone bought it to scrap it.



from the ad:

I KNOW YOUR WONDERING WHY IS THEIR FERRARI BADGES ON A PORSCHE CAR THE THING IS PEOPLE DONT KNOW WHAT CAR IT IS AND FALL FOR IT THINKING IT IS FERRARI ALONG WITH THE NOISE WHICH PUTS THE 458 ITALIA TO SHAME wink..... ALL THE CHROME BADGES AND STICKERS ARE GENUINE FERRARI AND CAN BE REMOVED OF THE CAR EASILY AND PUT BACK TO PORSCHE IF YOU WANTED I HAVE A SET IF YOU DO WANT TO DO THIS......BUT I WOULD LEAVE IT TO BE HONEST...THE CAR HAS HAD FORTUNE SPENT ON IT


As I recall he wanted more for it than an untarnished model of the same year with less miles blah blah. Basically your standard moron if you couldn't already tell.

The poor deluded fool will be heartbroken if he realises his Porsche is a VW in drag in the first place.

here you go

I wonder if anyone can tell me, is this car HIP clear?

It's a very sad example and can not be worth anywhere near as much as an unmolested, original Cayenne, let alone more than...

You think they care? I don't. Ron is probably too busy making sure all the tiles are the right colour

Shame he didn't notice the animation in his documentary had the 4-stroke cycle all wrong..

That MP4 owner needs his car reclaiming from him!
He obviously has no idea an upside down wing is going to make the back end go lighter the faster he goes as it tries to take off

Not with that angle of attack on it..
Ever seen an aeroplane fly upside-down?

My friend saw this in London at the weekend too. It really does look like a pile of crap. It was alongside a gold coloured 458 Italia too. Tragic.

Hmm, I like utes, but I'm not sure I like that one. Mind you, it does look quite well done, but could I bring myself to want an old Granada?

That makes sense. It would be a better concept with a FWD car, like those Citroen CX car transporters.

It's like a P10000

I've got bad eyesight now, after trying to read the Alphabetti Spaghetti that is the text at the bottom of that ad

How daft!
Anymore pics? preferably sideways?

[Butter Face]

I haven't actually, he's had it for maybe 8/9 years and it only comes out every now and again, it's ridiculous but it's 4 seats!

I'll try and get some pictures.

IIRC they did put it into a limited production run of about 20 vehicles. But each unit sold at £400k.

Really!? I didnt know that. It would make for a bloody great toy if you had that kind of cash to burn. It always reminded me of an out of the box rally cross car.

Now I would love to buy a hilux surf soon , but my god definitely not one like this!!
