At that price it should be a snip. But it could be a replica. Last one I saw on sale was around £45K. I did see one on the Huddersfield ring road last week.

Hmmm - interesting comment Howard - it doesn't look quite right to me either. And why no internal / engine pictures? ------------- Cats know your every thought. But don't care. |

Very odd bodykit. I have never seen an M1 that looked quite so much like a De Tomaso Pantera. Is it a kit car? Weird place to sell it if it is genuine. ------------- MALLORCAMAN Putting the ///M in Mallorca |

It's in the wrong section :

Can't be right with lack of info and those small pictures. Surely if you were selling a genuine one you'd have loads of photos, history etc. Wanted one ever since I had "performance car" top trumps and the M1 Procar was in there

That sort of vehicle whoever it the owner is, if it is a genuine article, the seller would provide heaps of details along with with more pictures. I remember the M1 did have different wheels as standard to the ones shown in the picture. If its is just a bodykit or some special edition (which can't ever recall there being) thsi would also be mentioned naturally. There would also be a healthy reserve price tag as well. ------------- Let The Good Times Roll |

I emailed two questions to the seller. I got back two blank emails. I can't help but feel there is something dodgy going on.

It doesn't look right and it doesn't sound right therefore it isn't right. Either a wind up or someone trying to pass off a kit car as genuine. ------------- Entering an age of Austerity and now driving a Focus Diesel. |

I agree that there is something very dodgy about the auction, but as for car not being 'right', take a look at this... http://www.racingsportscars.com/photo/1985/Le_Mans-1985-06-16-157.jpg - http://www.racingsportscars.com/photo/1985/Le_Mans-1985-06-1 6-157.jpg Almost identical as far as I can see, even the colouring of the rear wing.

Im after contacting the seller - will let you know of any response. Did the M1 have air con? A bit odd for a car of this type. ------------- Current: 2009 E60 520d "Sport" tractor Previous: 1989 E30 320i SE 1997 E39 523i 2003 E39 525i Sport Individual |

It's a hoax!
Look out for a KHG M1 - KHG bought all the parts from BMW and continued to assemble them but were not allowed to use the BMW badge. they're still worth shedloads though. ------------- |

OMG Is it just me or does it look nothing like an M1. Why would anyone want to make their MR2 (which has a bit of credibility) into something that looks like that ------------- Entering an age of Austerity and now driving a Focus Diesel. |

You may well ask, but I have seen a Ferrari F50 on ebay for £330,000 advertised by a specialist company who take photo's and do the listing for luxury/high value items, they also vet the bidder before allowing them to bid. I know it's not the same thing, but you do get some amazing things on ebay! As for this little beauty, I doubt it's a genuine ad, if you look, it says at the top 'bidder withrew item due to incorrect information' It was probably just a 1:18 scale model lol!
