    If he doesn't want it then the second suspect has to be Platy.

    Quote from the auction:

    "HERE`S A CLASSIC SPECIAL NOBODY ELSE HAS GOT !!!!"

    Now I wonder why that is?

    C'mon, you could always get Beav to give it a quick blow over with
    anything other than the existing colour.

    Those 'body panels', and even worse, the black/gold pinstriping round
    the edge. That, and the Silver Smoothrite engine and radiator
    paintjob fill me with scorn. And revulsion, let's not forget
    revulsion.

    Ah, so that retching sound was coming from your direction then?

    Well, I guess you can *paint* a turd.

    No matter waht you do it's still a turd.

    Yes, but at least it wouldn't be a purple turd.

    But you'd only have to spray it once whereas you'd need to bic your
    head every day to hide your dodgy colour scheme.

    Ewww...

    Fortunately, I have just handed over a very large amount of money to my
    local friendly Toyota dealer and bought new cars for me and Mrs WUN. I
    therefore have none to spare for this, no matter *how* pissed I get
    before the auction ends.

    Yes! My days of owning shonky old motors are at an end.

    It feels odd.

    What did you get? I quite fancy one of the FJ Cruisers or maybe a truck.

    Mrs WUN got a new Yaris[1]. I got a Rav-4. Not quite a Cruiser, but a
    lot more parkable, and a *LOT* cheaper. "Special" edition with many
    toys. I'm quite looking forward to getting it.

    The Land Crusher will then officially be for sale.

    [1] She likes it in the Yaris.

    LOL. Just read the auction description a bit more:

    "viewing is strongly recommended no cameras and tape measures"

    WTF?

    They're worried that someone will duplicate this feat...

    The Rav-4 is a nice one.
    I'd rather have an old landcruiser.
    heh

    I thought of offering £5 but then realised that's a fiver wasted if I
    win.
