It's an invasion, run for your lives... well walk briskly to some stairs should do

Nice hinged skirt though

Ridiculous

Offer of £2000 which I really can't take seriously (I've never spent that on a car)

Another guy wants to commission me to build another for him if he doesn't win.

Are some of you Locosters pulling my chain... or has this country gone insane

Get onto Haynes quick

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

those other daleks are crap, no running gear - i guess yours will end at more than 2k by the end.

John,

There is a company selling non-functional Dalek's for £2k so yours must be worth at least that.
All bidders seem genuine so far but be prepared to delete any muppet bids.

I have spoken to Astonmartin1974, He was the guy that wanted to commission me to build one for him if he doesn't win. I quickly turned the conversation away from Daleks to cars and as part payment he offered me his car for the summer. Fully insured and ready to go.

Classic V8 Vantage.... And I believe he was being serious

WTF

Now I would assume every member of this forum is a practical guy who can use a jigsaw, router, drill etc. Anyone building or considering building a car can whip up a bloody Dalek in a few evenings....
Lets see if the payment materialises though the second highest bidder actually came over yesterday to see him so I guess that one is genuine...

Unbelieveable......

im really pleased for you!

However, i think this is a thing of the moment.

If you put it up in a month, I dont recon it would do half as well.

still, thats 1500 quid if taken literally!
