If that's the one being discussed on ABS then don't touch it with someone else's bargepole ....  I'll quote just one tiddly bit ..

http://www.autobahnstormers.org.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=26891

"Laughable!! These are the notes I have on the car....

"For sale for £25,950 on eBay on the 24th of April 2016 with 56,653 miles. Price reduced to £21,500 on the 1st August 2015 with 56,635 miles. For sale for £25,000 by a chap called Dan Tranter of DT Performance Cars July 2015 with 55k miles. Originally L888 PJW. Not moved for 8 years to 2015, possible clutch failure, in need of restoration. Purchased for £5k and sold for restoration for £8k by a trader. Registered as L888 PJW from new until 9th May 1995. Sold and re-registered as L468 OMP. Bought by Alan Greenhalf Lambourne End, Essex and registered as 21 JEM from 9th June 1996. Re-registered as 1 AJG from 19th February 1998 until 28th March 2005. Returned back to L468 OMP. Showing 19k miles in 1995, 51k miles August 2000 and 55k May 2015. "

EDIT .. and apparently the engine bay picture is not even from the same car ...  :(

Nice but £55,000 can think of better ways of spending that amount of cash.

Where do I join the end of the queue ?

Actually, you will get something similar not far from me. But, a bit nicer than Stoke

A few years ago there as an LC for sale, had been in a showroom type enviroment, 1 owner from new (I think) less than 100 miles on it and trailered to the MOT station every year.  £20k (wished I had got the money a time) :y

As has been said, if buying an LC, check with ABS first, the car will most likely be known. :y
