That was such a labour of love if the program was to be believed I wonder if they ran out of money, disguised what was always a commercial venture or just got bored? It was a very impressive build nonetheless!

Original article dated 30 Aug 2008, so it has been on the market a fair time. I wonder if they would take offers...
