Fucking annoys me this does. Plus, advertising it as 'tax exempt' when there can't be any pissing Minors that aren't is pretty hopeless. As hopeless as making a mistake in the header saying it's M' reg.

Clearly, the only value in this is as a ringing kit.

In all the years of looking at shit on eBay, I'm pretty convinced I've never seen a moth using two chrome vibrators to photograph a Nissan Micra before. Nor a flying baby.

Wrong section roulette Volvo '240' for spares/repairs. Doesn't say what's wrong with it, but it's showing as still taxed and it's MOT'd until December.

I don't know if the ebay seller or anybody here finds that funny but I think it's fucking sick.

You're entitled to think that, because in many ways it IS sick. 

However, it is prescient to recent discussions I've had with other occupants of the A63 single-occupancy lane on the way into/from Leeds in the morning/evening and we see cars fleeing past in the "2+" high-occupancy lane with seemingly just the one gadgey in the car, and it got me to thinking, "Do you have someone in the boot? Otherwise you're a cheating cunt.".

I really don't know what they are thinking. Weird.

The seller says

Quote

OR TO TRANSFER  REGISTRATION PLATE OBVIOUSLY GOING THROUGH DVLA RULES AND REGULATIONS

Aren't the DVLA rules and regulations that you can't just weld that to the chassis of a Porsche Cayenne and never pay road tax again? Not that I'm just jealous of the pub landlord down my road who has got away with it on his 'suffix K reg' Defender TD5 for years.

Christ! Who goes to the bother of importing a Stealth? 

Would have been easier to just get a Mitsu 3000GT/GTO, and slap some dodge badges on it? Says imported in 1994, so guess done to avoid the silly prices of a new one from a dealership(By new, i mean Mitsubishi 3000GT)...but begs the question of why not just import a JDM spec GTO?

I think it's generally assumed undesirable yank dross like this comes over with USAF personnel and eventually gets left behind. 

Hard to think who it would appeal to nowadays. It's not going to appeal to the JDM crowd or the Classic American treadership. 

Edit: just looked at the engine and it isn't the GTO's 24v. Looks like an earlier 12v engine. 'Bet that barely makes 150bhp.

Edit edit: years ago I was using the downhill circuit (Fuji, something) of Forza (1) on Xbox to time trial A-Spec cars. Really having fun getting the best set-up and trying to get the very best runs out of sooped-up 90s Japanese "icons". 

Best run I got? Impreza? NSX? Supra? Nope! Dodge Stealth Twin Turbo. It was effortless too.
