I've now wasted lots of time going to see this car, offering and sorting out money and insurance to buy the car twice in the past 6 months only for the owner to back out of selling the car.... price keeps changing as well.... the range has gone from £22.5K to its current £35K.....?!?!?!

I know people waste time when they are trying to buy something, first time I've come across a time waster selling!!!

You've been warned!!!!!!!!!!

Thats Mike Sekinger's GT1 replica. Rather than being ugly it's an exact replica of the jan Lammers GT1 Lotus Race car.

Mike's substantial work on this car can be seen here.

And the Engine here:

Don't know what happened to make you upset and frankly I don't want to know as it's nothing to do with me but I do know this cars worth every penny.

It was also confused at this advert as you said about 8 months ago it was selling it for around 25k. Now at 35k. Did it sell for 25k and now the new owner is trying to get 30k plus?

Nope it didn't sell.... I made an offer it was accepted and the day before collection he backed out... then did the same again 6 months later.... absolute timewaster...
