Remember that "buy an Italian sportscar for less than 10 thousand" challenge on Top Gear?

If you didn't then well... Jeremy Clarkson bought a Maserati Merak "SS" that was total piece of crap and it later turned out it wasn't even a SS; it was really a stock one.

James May bought a Lamborghini Urraco that broke down everywhere and nearly survived the challenge but broke down and created a traffic jam.

Richard Hammond bought a Ferrari 308 and that died near the end.


Anyway... 1-2 years later... eurospares somehow acquired Clarkson's shitty Merak and is planning to break it down into "parts". It also turns out the bottom end of the engine was blown... Oh well... I'd buy the seats so I can perform a bad Jeremy Clarkson impersonation in my living room.

Strangely, it's been sitting there for over a year.
