Maybe someone will buy it and park it on his grave and let it leak oil on his coffin.

I'm sure there will be buyers. If nothing else, for parts.

Rolls don't leak, they only mark their territory!

Sounds like a scammer to me. To much BS in the ad.

How about the people that bought that food item that had the image of the Virgin Mary?

That’s very witty G-Benz. , How would describe the history of the Rolls on the ebay listing…. Perhaps ”One previous careless owner”?

If I thought it was a real ad, and It was in decient shape for the money, I would buy it.

Why would I buy it? Because f**k that guy, that's why.

Sure I would buy it, the owner is famous. Besides that its a nice car, no one would know it was Saddam's if you don't tell them.

Hitler or Pol Pot's MB's are worth more because they owned them. Famous is famous.
