Didn't VIN#01225 go to Ireland?

[Dangermouse]

Don't think so, Andy.

Ye are obviously not wrestling fans guys. This is Sheamus's car. [emoji3]
Probably the most famous Irish owner at the moment since Eddie Irvine sold his car

Don't think so, Andy.

Apparantly it was bought in 2012 by an Irish guy, but the car stayed in the States ... hense my confusion.

I'm fairly certain that this car was advertised for sale here in Austin last year. I believe they wanted $50-$55k for it.

Yes, it was offered for sale in the States last year, but it was then bought by a Irish guy who lives in the States (hence my confusion that it would have went to Ireland). Apparantly, it's a 'famous' wrestling guy who bought it, but wrestling isn't that well known over here in Europe ... ( well, at least not by me it isn't )

Car is now listed on EBay.

Really nice frame underneath and some upgrades added.

Has the early Stage 2 jet hot coated exhaust, which has some surface rust on it.

I should probably have read the ad more closely :tongue_stick: as it says it was owned by Sheamus. This is the same used car dealer that he bought it off in 2014 for $55k.

Drove it only 800 odd miles, and didn't even pay us a visit here at 'Talk :(

Free cardboard cut-out with every purchase !!

Also, this guy says he has 01225 for sale too

but clearly a different car

Clearly a bogus posting. No photos of the car or interior and a very bland and vague summary and description. Hopefully no one bids or tries to buy it.

Now the ad has been edited to say it is 07174 with still some of the worst sale-ad photos ever.

Worse, he has cut and pasted the text from the previous ad and is still claiming it is a Stage II which seems unlikely on a <5000 mile car, unless this is a remanufactured one. Proceed with caution on this one, I'd say
