Ah, I was confused. Given the seller's attitude I'm astounded that he/she has had any bids.

The seller certainly has a poor bedside manner

"you will need to apply for the log book I can't find it 25 pounds from dvla i do have the green slip"
And I'm not sure whether he picked up much punctuation and grammar when he was at school.

Looks like an honest original example from the pictures, definitely worth a view I would say.

Certainly looks worth a look, though.

I think the owner may be on TLF. I remember someone's signature stating he has (had?) an active suspension Esprit.

What I want to know is . . . what’s the red car in the garage in the background?

An Esprit ^^
(I spotted it too, but he actually states in the auction description that he has just bought the Esprit and can only keep one — what a mistake!)

Daft thing is; they've gone to a lot of trouble to scribble out the registration but left it on the tax disc. H780AEW since you ask. Only 4,000 miles in the last 12 years...
