Hmm.

Cant see why that would be put up on PH (no offence guys).

I would think either an approach to a broker like Simon Kidston or putting it up in auction would have yielded better results.

There have been doubts expressed about the broker in the past as I recall so maybe its a record of the less desirable sort

This company is a joke, total waste of time.

I suspect that the seller may be a little dubious, would that be a fair assumption? Other than PH classified ads there doesn't seem to be any web presence, yet they also claim to be selling other slightly unusual exotica like a 288GTO, 250 California Spider, and Lambo Reventon. I'm happy to be corrected if I'm wrongly casting aspersions, but when the ads are populated with what may well be stock photos, and the only contact number is a mobile, I think I'd be looking elsewhere!

Have to admit the other adverts seem very strange. The DB9 advert is absurd...why would you put only one dodgy interior shot?

It's a fake advert, it was reported a week or two ago . . . . .

If you look carefully at the pic, it's a model car. The wording of the ad reminds me slightly of those e-mails you get telling you that someone died and their $50,000,000,000,000 is waiting for you.

I thought it was a model car, glad it wasn't just me.

Surely a car of this pedigree would probably not have to be advertised to sell? I'd have thought a new owner would be found through 'people you know' as it were.

"Better known" is one way of putting it hehe. I think that was an Enzo.

On the off chance that someone DOES win the lottery - I do know someone who knows a very good original 250GTO for sale.

Can you ask him if it can be converted to LPG? Always fancied a GTO but figure that V12 might be a bit thirsty.
