My God.

I reckon it would execute a back-flip if taken above 80mph.

[AL600-or-so]

Maybe it's got hydraulics?

LOL can't believe they posted those pictures expecting no one to think anything was wrong!

that looks kind of like a speedboat riding a wave

[wacattack]

Ive sent him a question on ebay asking why the front is about 15 feet off the ground, cant wait for his response (will keep you posted)

[Matelotman]

Advert says that it's "had a small accident to the front which has been repaired nicely" .....

[dazren]

Is this some sort of off road prototype?

[Stonie]

I've also sent him a question. IF I receive an answer I shall post it on here and refere back to him that his answer has been posted on PH.

Looks like a basket case in the front thats for sure. But someone please save it!!!

[Jez O]

Maybe the nearside rear wheel is in a HUGE pothole. That would certainly explain it.

[wacattack]

Maybe his wife is in the boot?

According to an old owner on SELOC, it was a Cat-C write off with serious chassis damage. I think it's probably beyond saving.

[MadProf]

st...and I thought no one would rumble where I'd stashed my gold bullion!!

[JOSHKY]

According to SELOC he is also selling a mini '1961 Morris Mini Saloon Item number: 250258046611' I think his interested watchers have been watching the football!!!!!!!!

[kirky135r]

Asked the seller a question...

[wacattack]

Standard Bilstein shocks!?!?

[wacattack]

His response to my question "why does the front look like its 15 feet off the ground?!?!" was.....

"Cannot understand your question. What do you mean 15 feet off the ground? This is a standard Mk1 Elise"

EEEHHHHHHH!!!!
