Most random eBay auction item!
Chatting to bella who has just pointed out a couple of very random eBay auctions. It got me thinking - could make an interesting thread! So...
What is the most random item of motorsport memorabilia that you have spotted on eBay? Please avoid posting details of general randomness - if you find a 747 for sale, for example, stick it on Parc Ferme So I'll start with this: Windscreen from 1997 BTCC Renault Laguna I mean, who in gods name is gonna want that? Unless, of course, they have a BTCC car sat in their garage, and how many people have one of them? |

Hmmm, the same type of people who collect bits of cars at race tracks i guess, bumpers etc. A friend of mine once took home a old racing car tyre from Blackbushe Kart Track because he thought it could have come from a formula car. People will take/buy anything if they really want it. Thats quite Cheap actually!

I can kinda understand a door skin or even a bonnet, the kind of thing that you can screw to your garage wall, in fact it can be quite cool. But a windscreen?! Come on!

EDIT: Why is it listed under "Cars, Parts & Vehicles > Car Parts > Ford", that's even more random. Last edited by redshoes; 15 Jul 2006 at 09:11. |

That's kinda the point though... why list it on eBay when you could contact the four or five or whatever people who actually own these things directly
Anyway... another random auction: Alpinestars hand towel used by Noriyuki Haga in 2004 Wow, that's simply spectacular! Last edited by Craig; 15 Jul 2006 at 09:35. |

I didn't say I actually wanted it.
Going back to the Laguna windscreen, it would make a good front panel for a touring car themed custom display case. |

Cool idea! You could sit in your Rusty Wallace Adult Inflatable Chair and admire the collection. Like it

You can have a couple of my unused 750MC tickets if you like?!
I have some old random stuff in a drawer somewhere on home, but wasn't going to sell it...! |

Suze seems to have killed that auction for the 750mc ticket. I hope the seller doesn't read this thread else he may be mad(der than he was when he thought some muppet would pay money for a used piece of paper)

That makes the one on eBay even more rare now. I'm tempted to put a bid in.
