Says in the advert he never intended to sell it then, in the same sentence that it was a long term investment.
Which one is it?

Either way, it's hilarious.

It'll be interesting to see whether or not it sells.

It looks to be a pretty clean car, but you can never tell from photo's. Has anyone seen it in the flesh (metal)? £6-7k seems a low estimate :-) if indeed it is as good as he describes? I'm guessing it will go for £7-8k ? Wager anyone?

I was referring to Sean's estimate of £6-7k :-) Like you say, it will be interesting to see what it sells for.

Silverstone Auctions results list says "regretfully withdrawn."

Either it sold privately (to a lunatic) or it's still out there.
