Nice looking boat anchor, my mechanics words, not mine. This was an eBay deal, or so I thought, my idea of perfect was not the sellers. Driving home from LA after collecting the car was an experience, the lights and gauges on the dash kept blowing the fuse so it was impossible to know how fast or slow you were going. Add to that the fuel gauge was not working, in a V12 that is a serious problem. Was pretty much downhill from there….
Spent most its time in the garage. After the transmission started to shift erratically I decided enough was enough and just donated the thing. It appeared back on eBay from the charity, without the list of problems in the description that I had attached to the car, tut tut. Lesson I should learn, never buy a car on eBay….
