The following eBay description make four claims. How many are incorrect?

"Rare chance to own this stunning machine built in 1973 originally and then converted by karman in the US. From research we have done this car is 1 of only 10 ever made and comes complete with a new VW Race tuned air cooled 1600 engine."

The main piece of script is utter bolx.

"We are remarketers"

"This is my private car"

"Real Dinos are worth 300,000".....so what ?....It's not even close to being a Dino.

Utter tripe.

Ha Ha what a lot of bs. I like the bit "will come with 12 months MOT and a new battery as I haven't started it in a while" A regularly used car then. My mate in the trade will 'provide' a 12 months cert.

£15,000 - this could be sat in your garage and won't go down in value....

People take photographs of it wherever I go, (but it hasn't been used for a while and he's done nothing since he bought it)

And yes it's a Karma and I seem to remember the factory car had those wheels. Not strictly Ferrari replica wheels mind...

On the plus side the seats look ok
