You are very, very lucky, sir, this has just become available and, between you and me, you need to be quick on your toes, know what I mean? Once the news gets out there's going to be an almighty rush for this collector's item and the price will go through the roof!
Here it is, sir, a genuine 2005, Hemi-powered Chrysler 300C with only ... sorry, sir, what was that? Hemi-powered? Er, well, it's, er, sort of powered by,um, Hemis, know what I mean? Latest thing Hemis, very good for the environment, your kids will be able to brag to their school friends that you drive a Hemi. Now, sir, the great thing about this car is its history - oh, yes, and boy, oh boy, do I mean history! This has one very careful owner, someone you might know of, sir, someone who is very, very famous - President Barack Obama! Oh yes, we don't sell no rubbish here, sir! President Obama himself drove this car. What was that , sir? How much? Well, look, what with you being a regular customer and all, I'll tell you what I can do for you. It breaks my heart but just for you - I'll take a million dollars. Sir! SIR! What's wrong ? Did I say something . . . ?
Well, enough of that nonsense, but according to the WSJ a million dollars was being asked on Ebay for that car and, surprise, surprise, no-one wanted to buy it! Perhaps it was the colour - no, no, not his, the car's - do behave yourself! Or perhaps people are nervous of contracting Hemi-rroids, I don't know. Anyway, there it is and apparently they are waiting to see how things go - or not - in November which might change the valuation.
Do they allow foreign nationals to drive?

Tricky that, 'W', but I understand that if questioned he will claim his wife was the driver!
