Another "private listing" so we'll never know if it sold or who was bidding or bought it. If anyone ;)

The Jag CUD key rings do regularly go for over £200 this is however the most expensive one yet. I have no doubt that it did sell.

I can see an obvious problem with that - ironic that the driver won't, as there is a ruddy great mirror in his way, so he can only see what's behind him, and it's the front of his own caravan. Out front is anyone's guess.

Rare, as in no-one bought one?

:lol:
