Anyone know what this is

In my local freeads:

"MERCEDES-BENZ C180 N Reg, Number 2 of 4 built by Lamborghini specialist, AMG 18" alloys, AMG black leather interior, front end identical to Mercedes-Benz CLK, TV, DVD, stereo, economical, cheap insurance, must sell, moving abroad forces sale, may p/ex for cheap bike, car or cash £5,995 open to sensible offers "

Been on there a couple of weeks can't work out what it is though. Is it just a well speced C180 with a CLK bonnet like the conversion they do on the W124 E class to make them look like a new one?

I'd wonder why if he has to sell that car because he's moving abroad he's happy to think about part exchanges.

These cars with bolted on front ends have no real value as they don't appeal t the purists and those that can afford the "real thing" will buy it.

Walk away unless you want to get stuck with it

"Number 2 of 4 built by Lamborghini specialist"

Don't know about you but I'd rather have a Mercedes specialist doing that sort of thing. Then again, a specialist with any ounce of taste wouldn't get involved in making those sort of Frankenstein's monsters.

No way I was thinking of buying it!!! Just really confused why someone would same as something on ebay the other day. A Fiat Cinquencenco (nearly right) reworked by a Jag engineer?!?!

Just seems a bit of an odd thing to do especially for a Lamb engineer!

My mind is full of useless thoughts!

Define engineer

I once checked the fluids and tyre pressures on one of my old employers Ferrari F40... does that make me a ferrari engineer?... I mean Ive worked on one

Im not trying to offend the real engineers, Im just trying to illustrate a point
