  • nfb: would u buy this for $0.90 ???

    LotusEsprit turbo................. Oh My Gosh! perfect condition...

    seems Tim Shaw, a radio DJ in Birmingham, England.... was flitriting with a model on the air..telling her he would leave his weife and children for her..... well, tims wife, Hayley..heard the comments cause she was listening to her radio at the time at home.... she immediately sold his $45,000 car on eBay for..........90 cents. In the eBay add she wrote: "I need to get rid of this car immediately..ideally in the next 3-4 hrs before my husband gets home to find it gonea and all his beloingings in the street"...

    it was bought in five min.'s........and picked up that night....

    "The car was his pride and joy, but the idiot put my name on the log book" Hayley Shaw said.........

    dahhhmmmn

    all the more reason to tittle your car in just your name.... like my gto ....and the CompTA was........

    pays to surf eBay, eh?

          If I read the Snopes article correcly, the DJ did mimic the urban legend.

                              now that i think about it more... isnt that pretty messed up of the other guy? I mean, i would be tempted! But still. Thats hella messed up. I mean if your woman sold your car to me for $.90, and you seriously came to me w/ what happened, i would give it back. Or atleast sell it back for like 5k. I mean SOMETHING, i just dont think i would be able to sleep at night. :shrugs:
