I'd assume they are using the pictures to make it look like they have masses of stock and access to those cars.
In reality, they probably have a handful of basket cases.

the photos of the cars are from when they where at raf thurleigh, which is where all the scrappage cars went
they are no longer there, so presumably have all been scrapped by now - they had gone by the back end of last year according to a report on 28 days later
I bet the breaker is just using photos ripped from the net............

Perhaps someone actually believes the blather that it is 'AN AUSTIN MINI MK1 1962 AND WAS ONLY ONE OF A FEW MINIS MANUFACTURED AT THE COWLEY PLANT'...

Seller was recently advertising on Facebook to buy a Cooper S engine so there might soon be another S coming up for sale by him.
