Hi everyone, just a heads up on the boot roller cover on eBay - the picture the seller is using in the listing is a photo I took of the roller cover fitted in my car.
Just a heads up as the listing looks quite dodgy.

Scouselad is the bloke who bought the four 480s that someone had stored for years as a retirement project.

That's the one. Absolutely ridiculous price even if it was a legitimate listing. Paid less than half that for mine last year.

I've just paid under £100 for mine a few weeks ago, including delivery ! That's an eye-watering price for what is a used cover, no matter how hard they are to get hold of.

Its because this seller is a particular kind of opportunistic low life. Claims to be an enthusiast but is solely motivated by greed and loves nothing more than ripping off fellow 480 owners.
