In the listings, it states: “Honestly, the only reason I’m selling it is because I don’t want my ex getting it in the divorce.”
The four-seater is described as being in “great condition” although the owner does admit it does need some attention.
In the online advert it says there are “a few scuff marks on the passenger front wing.”
And it adds: “There is also an issue with the rear suspension.”
The listing also says the car comes with minilite wheels.
The private seller from Neston, Cheshire, also says: “This car has recently been resprayed, welding and whole new custom interior, (this was due to the car being SORN for a long period).”
Photos show the green car with a black interior has done 31,900 miles, according to the milometer.
