I am listing this vehicle for my friend. He purchased this car about 10 years ago off e-bay. Traveled to North Carolina to pick it up and trailered it back to Virginia. He drove it off the trailer pulled it under his car port and put a cover over it and that is where it has sat all this time. Now he is going through a divorce and wants to get rid of it. The car has been started and operated recently while being checked out by mechanics earlier this year to determine if anything needed to be fixed. Unfortunately the car is not legal to operate on the Streets of Virginia because of the hydraulic system. The batteries that operate the hydraulics do need replacing as they have gone down over the years. We are told by the mechanics that the engine and transmission are in good condition. Interior of the car is in good condition. The outside has a few problems. One of the plastic tinted headlight covers is broken in the right bottom corner. One of the red tail light lens is missing on the back of the car. There are a few paint chips on the body. I have no earthly idea how the stereo system works on this car. It has so much stuff hooked up in the back is looks like it's ready to put on a concert. The system looks brand new but what it all is and what it does we don't understand. It has fold down monitors in the back and also two monitors in the passenger compartment which is somehow all hooked into this system. One thing that needs to be mentioned is the car has a keyless entry system that operates with a key fob. If you notice in the photographs there are no door handles. You push a button on the key fob and the door pops open. So if you lose the key fob I guess you have to find another or you will be eternally locked out of the car. This car was purchased for $10,000.00 by this owner and not a mile put on it since he bought it. This car if not legal to operate on the streets of the state you reside in is still a great buy for parts.
