A fake ECU?

[KarlFranz]

Anybody else seen this?

Some pictures are of the real ECU. The knock-off looks pretty fake.

Why?

[BingoBob]

How bizarre. The fake is hideous. Hmm, I wonder which on you will receive...

the good thing is.....if you chip your glass one...buy the fake one and swap the glass sections over....rather 30 odd quid than 800...

Except the glass isn't even the same shape—or the entire ECU for that matter

And it doesn't do anything!
I'm guessing its just a bit of unofficial James Bond tat

Does make you wonder what sort of life people have that makes them buy something like that. What could you ever do with it?

Maybe when they go swinging they like to impress people by putting an Aston Martin key in the bowl. Jockman will tell you more about that since he's someone who enjoys caravanning

But for what purpose? If they are trying to pick up someone gullible, the game is up if they are successful and walk outside to get in a mondeo.

Amateur

Either you're 'parked up for the night as you've had too much to drink' so 'let's share a cab to yours', or you just get the phone number (or the 'digits' as the yoof call it).

You don't take your car on a date anyway

Will you get rumbled... of coure, but if you're the kind of tool who does this stuff, why would you care!
