Muscle Cars You Should Know: Ford Tobacco King Rocket Car https://share.google/54nQ0LvX40jKNumgG
Looks like a regular Ford Galaxie drag car til you look at the rocket turbine driving the back axle

Looks like a case of trying to get back what they spent creating it. I can see it may have a niche appeal for things like charity events but £50k seems strong. There are better toys to spend that on than a weirdly modified MGF.

It's essentially the most expensive Halloween decoration money can buy, with the bonus that you can move it in and out the garage (where it'll live for 11 months and 2 weeks of the year) under its own power.

I'd be stunned if it that thing still qualified as an MGF in the eyes of the DVLA too- would probably be better suited to a Q plate.
