And now we need to turn this thread over to our tame racing driver.

Some say that he's never built a prop in his life, but if he did, no matter what he'd make, it would go 200MPH. All we know is, he's called the Stig:

Sorry folks. Im kinda torn on reporting some of this stuff on my site because I know some people still enjoy the game of actually hoping that not everyone will know if an item comes up that will mean they actually have a chance of winning it. I'd like to know peoples opinions on this because truth be told I find a tonne of stuff online that Im not always interested in.

I know for some though that once the heavy hitters are aware the dream is over....

A hard line to walk....

If you want these things badly enough you will find the information yourself, you did the right thing.

I had a chat with the auction house and expected this to go for about £5,000. Someone got a good deal.
