It's popularity amongst the Pistonhead fraternity is so amazing & overwhelming.  May be, when I've finished my 3000 I'll part ex it for it - if it's still for sale!!!  Grin  Wink  On the other hand, when I wake up from this nightmare, I won't.   Even the website is so undesirable and doesn't hold your attention AND there's only a mobile phone number - no other contact details whatsoever.

Is that what all our money went on?

Not sure whether I have totally missed the point here, but is what Mr Holmes doing legal? Nobody seems to have raised the fact (or is it a fact?) that he is a bankrupt and that car is the alleged reason for it, apart from certain alleged management incapability?
Let us all hope that anyone stupid enough to even think about writing a cheque to buy one of the things has at least the sense to do a bit of homework first and check out a bit of history.

I'm not actually sure that the car is actually his to sell; I thought it was some sort of license agreement or something and, of course, I can't actually see anything on the website saying it is actually him selling it although the website does look eerily like 'his' Pilgrim website.

Have you also noticed the small writing along the lower edge of the number plates?

Any volunteers to be a "mystery buyer"?  Lips sealed

From the comments made on Pistonheads I get the felling they are not about to rush out and buy one!!

I feel a road trip coming on,OR,
 as I've been thinking we could have a wager.

How long do we think that he will last this time with what can only be called his swan song of a abortion?

I reckon 2 months.

Anyone else want to guess? And I reckon it will be more fun watching him destroy himself.
