For those who may have missed this vehicle is on Ebay at present

http://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/e11051.m4 ... AAU%3A1123

In the words of the owner "Thank you for your feedback, actually this a Mk-III car which is a much better (later model) vehicle then a Mk-II. I understand about your concern and I thank you for letting me know."

The car is nothing more than a 1976 Leyland Mini S which has been made up to resemble a Cooper S.

Beware
