The only good thing about the adds is they are costing him money to show all and sundry that he is a complete fool.

Fool is an understatement, man people would think twice paying $30,000 let alone the figure he is asking. The most hillarious thing of all is that this bloke is supposedly a mechanic WHAT A TOOL!!!!!!

'Q: what drugs are you on buddy?
A: FoMoCo genuine one owner drugs; the best money can buy' If he sells the car maybe he can overdose on them or buy ones that set his head straight.

There is a promo on at the moment: free advert on ebay from 11-13th for ebay members that's most likely the only reason it's listed for that much.
BTW my Bimmer is also listed. Make someone buy it so I can get some money and maybe even buy a ford again

Yeah I noticed the ad descriptions were the same too - complete with the same spelling mistakes.
How the hell can he say that they are new? One's 28 years old and the other is 34. I can imagine say Ford selling one of their museum pieces for this price, but that's only because it has never been used. What a ****er. I've got a 2003 LTD for sale, 82000klm genuine I can prove it and garaged since new. $1 million dollars. I know it's a lot but it is the only way to end the love affair I've had with this vehicle, in such good condition. I'm not sure how many litres but it must be over 400. Like the ebay guy my hand is one constant blur.

Actually I'd say that this guy is a total liar too, especially since he is a mechanic and has probably restored them. He says over the thousands of parts he's sold, not one of them has failed? Sorry, but no company has quality control like that; especially Ford.
I love the line too about how he will only organise local delivery. For that price he should send the car on a round the world trip by air, and then blow you as well. "Once in a lifetime opportunity" - once in a lifetime opportunity to be ripped off so bad that you'll never ever forget how stupid you were "once in your lifetime". This guy really is a pathetic excuse for a ИИИИИstain.

They have been withdrawn from sale.
"The seller ended this listing early because the item is no longer available for sale." Or he woke up to himself???

Probably couldn't hack all the crap he was getting. we might see those items hang around the Family for a few more years and then come out double the price!

Maybe someone needs to sit him down and explain what "like New" really means! Probably just a term he picked up from someplace thought it would be cool to use

if its "like new" then i spose all the rust in it is just weight reduction? as for the cobra and GS he said in the Email that its not like he has a shed full of those sorts of cars... it seems he has at least a 2 car shed full of these sorts....by his logic, i could get about 20 G's for my XD, its like new! 3rd engine, 5th owner, but plenty of sentimental value....
