I was in the garage with the door open messing with the engine of 2456 when a car drove past and reversed back again. The guy parked and came up the driveway. He was tall and slim with grey hair, not too unlike JZD to be honest. His first line was "I'll give you £12,000 each". I laughed it off as I do 5 times a day at the minute. His next line was "I used to be paid to destroy these". I didn't know whether to get angry or ask how. He said "I was a test driver with Brian Nelson, we used to drive them around the mournes. Brakes were great, engine poor and shocks were shocking". At this stage my jaw was on the floor. He then asked how I got them and why before disappearing off into the sunset. Alas I didn't get his name or contact details through pure excitement. If he stops again I'll try him though.
