This is Contender 518, going for £900 in Cheshire... I wonder if it's been sold yet   

 

 

 

With the amount of coverage the photograph is getting , seller must be a marketing genius !!!!!!

Here's his number , googled it ! , no I don't know him but his visionary brilliance must be commended , how he forsaw this happening I don't know.

Price:  £900
