Looks a lovely car…...
yeah looks a nice car ...checked 5 star auto out a scam I think Chris. The address on the website is a housing estate in Austin TX business name relates to a run down car lot other side a town..website domain name V12 (scam for sure)....then check out the reviews.
I would have thought D's in this condition are worth twice that..... :roll:
Funny you should say that; just sold on ebay for $32k

That's certinally different! wonder what brakes they have put on it to stop it! The heat from those turbo's on the engine cover though

that rott looks quite bad to me, it makes me realise just how lucky i was with buying my delorean from abroad with no pictures of the underneath, id say seized engine and rusty chassis tick 2 boxes that really lower the price

Another one of "those" cars, by all accounts a pretty good one, though

Very early engine pipework. Looks like a good bet to me. ( at the right price)

US sale only, cant be arsed putting a starter on it, something just makes me think "hmmm" he would stand to make much more with very little effort.
I bet this is a can of worms!

Not necessarily a bad one. But in any case as the seller is not prepared to assist it getting it shipped to the UK, so unless you have a good friend in the US, to sort it all for you it could be very difficult to get it home.
