Default What's the crack with this car on eBay?

I've seen this car on ebay and up on the forum for a while now. From what i understand it was up for sale on here, then sold, parts removed then back up for sale at the same price. Then it came on ebay again saying it's been owned for 7 months (im sure it wasn't that long ago it was up for sale on here). Then a few weeks ago in the description it was slagging off the previous owner, which has now been changed too "No hoses left unsecured, no risks of any of the fixtures and everything done to a very high standard to ensure reliability."

Is the new owner or old owner on here? Im sure it was an Asian guy who originally put it up for sale on here?

Looks a weapon though

Highly modded s2k's are difficult to shift.

As is Jimmy Savile's sofa and Rolf Harris's didgeridoo.

Make sure it gets a decent valet, especially the seats

Op if you haven't guessed yet the previous owner enjoyed the company of minors, and not in the sense of unharmful contact.

Car is an absolute f@#king weapon, it's one of the fastest cars I have ever been in. If it's history wasn't so perverse I would have bought it.

As previously stated highly modified s2k are hard to shift, this isn't help when said s2k is likely to have aided and abetted the actions of a kiddifiddler

It's unlikely 496 unless absolutely pushed to limits but of course it was owned by a pedo, make him and offer and valet it.

I thought you meant the Gaelic word 'craic' at first, but perhaps your spelling was more appropriate after all...
