How much money?

[V10Mike]

Looks like a wedding car for chavs.

Although the ad says 1 owner, I have seen this offered for sale before.
In a magazine.. a couple of years ago......Will try and dig it out..

Somehow, I don't see that fetching the asking price.

You need to see this in person to realise the build quality and then your left just scratching your head trust me. It made £28k in 2007...unless the boot is now full of gold, best place to market this is China ?

If you had £225k to spare, would you buy that? I could think of LOADS of other cars I'd have rather than that, almost anything actually!

>>Powered by a Jaguar V12 5.3 litre engine, with 4 speed automatic transmission , dual braking systems coupled with anti-dive geometry & all round ventilated discs to all wheels, which are clothed with white wall high performance tyres.<<

Well there you are then.

Just knock off the first '2'.

This car was for sale in a dealership on the south coast, I won't mention the dealerships name to save embarrassment. Asking price then IIRC was around 100k, it didn't sell, there's a surprise. It has to rank as the biggest white elephant in the automotive world?

...or the zero at the end (£s)...


O/T but does this hold the record for the longest steering column on a road car?

[RichardR]

Apparently "it took eight skilled Aston Martin Lagonda craftsmen some two years to design and three years to construct".




You have to wonder WTF they were doing for those first two years!

It sounds like the guy who originally commissioned the car took the same approach as the people we bought our house from... spend lots of money but exercise no taste!

Reading the Ebay listing and Googling the commissioner of this monstrosity, it would appear that he either was in the film trade or a writer of Algebra text books.
Looking at it I can hear Prince Charles saying "Isn't it perfectly ghastly"
