I saw this, then wept a little.

Why would you buy a brand new car, spend 66K on 'crap bling' on a car that is already not the best looking, drive it around for a week then sell it..

1) Too much money
2) Spent the cash and realised it looked ste.
3) Lost loads of cash and had to sell.
4) Something else..

I hate to think how much he will loose on this..

I just don't get why there are so many cars that only have a few miles on and sold

Do you think Anyone at Mansory has ever said "ooh, I think we went too far this time, that looks a bit naff?".

Just another case of more money than sense.

Lot of it going around.

That's a bit odd, that car dealer is up the road from me outside a texaco petrol station, they specialise in 4x4s, sports and performance cars but usually sub 15k and sub 10k often 944s boxters, MR2s etc, don't know where the hell they got that from but that's more than the rest of their cars out together, also doubt if your going to buy something like that you'd buy it from a dealer based outside a petrol station in a less affluent part of Chester

Am I the only one that thinks those alloys look a bit spindly for a car with 500 brake knocking on the door of two tons. I can never understand how someone can buy a car and decide within 850 miles that they don't like it! It's not even run in!

That’s the same car that was on here last week with Mansory's UK "dealer", who just happen to be a couple of miles up the A41, I'd suggest that they may be in some way connected.

Either way as others have said, tacky overpriced car, being sold in an area where not many people have £160k to waste on this sort of tat and some way away from the traditional haunts of people who buy this sort of stuff. Were it in a London or even Aberdeen showroom, I could understand, but with a dealer who's normal stock is sub £20k, opposite the TA barracks in the back end of Chester confused

Don't get me wrong there's plenty of people who have that Money in the Chester area, but I went to look at a golf there and found the place to be a bit dodgy looking so people are unlikely to hand over 160k to them

That's quite tasteful by Mansory standards.

Why on earth would you spend £160k on that?

I suspect that unless they say that it goes back in the workshop to have some more bad taste added...

Maybe I'm out of touch, but do people with £160k to spend really go car shopping on ebay??
