Well, well, well.

The very first M100 Elan I owned 18 years ago has popped up on ebay.

(sigh) You never forget the first one ;)

Obviously she's had some money spent on her recently..

It failed its MOT in June 2018 and then wasn't tested again until June 2019. Interestingly the MOT failures are totally different a year down the line. How can this be ?

The MOT history is (ahem) interesting. It seems the car became a project for a year or two and various problems dealt with progressively.

How does ebay allow crap like this? He’s selling every sort of car you could possibly be interested in, all for £1 starting price, all inviting you to contact his email for details (mard82931@gmail.com) and inviting you to buy any one of them for the same price of £5,800, with the implied “let’s do a deal off ebay and you’ll get it cheaper” (or lose all your money). 1,800 items all listed to end at 13:36 on Sunday 20th.

Caveat emptor is one thing but are ebay asleep?

The short answer to that is YES John

Oh, and by the way, can you send me your credit card details, expiry date and security code. I am stuck in deepest Africa, all my cards have been stolen, and I need to get home urgently

No coolant in header tank. No rear lights (supplied but cracked) Brakes and calipers will be gubbed and the turbo/wastegate will, no doubt be requiring immediate attention. Selling on behalf of a friend :twisted:

Tyres, water pump, cambelt full service etc...

Hmmmm. Caveat Emptor :?
