Its bad enough buying cheap things on eBay, but who would trust have the sellers on the motors section!

He's being trying to sell that shed for months now.

I think he should buy some chickens and let them live in it. That'll keep it off the road

Don't knock the ebay car sellers just yet.
Cars do tend to go for lower values on there.
I've just bought my beater from there!

Wow, thats a beautiful car

If he makes that much from film studios I'd keep it another 6 months then he could afford a proper car !

Looks like it's a bodykitted MR2 roadster. If you look at the front arch you can see through it to the original panel! I'm also dubious about the "rebuilt 6 cylinder engine" - looks like the standard 1.8 model to me!

nothing wrong with buying cars on ebay

as long as you remember it's an auction

trade money is all you should pay - which is what Mikey paid

the chances of YOU spotting a bargain are negligible - the place is packed with dealers

and crooks
