I have an ebay search that looks for 6V stuff in the "Other Car Parts" category. There is always some odd stuff that crops up in the search, as did this; someone trying to sell a Laguna......not sure which is worse, the photo's or the description that sound as if a 7 year old wrote it Shocked

Thats easy Dave. He had been out on the town and had a good gargle, dumped the motor on the pavement, and then put it on ebay. Laughing Laughing

TBH I quite like that ad!

Biggest problem is lack of punctuation which is making it unreadable.

Otherwise it is engaging enough to make you think you've found a bargain.

Car doesn't look too bad and at that money, if it was down the road and I was in the market for a banger I would probably take a look.
