A seller on eBay is looking to part ways with what
they assert was the ‘world’s first’ Tesla Model S. Based on a Model S 85, the
highest bid at the time of writing was just a touch over US$ 67,000, less than an
ordinary 2015 Model S 85 would have cost you in 2015. Evidently, people don’t
seem too keen on paying a premium for an electric vehicle that’s literally been
chopped in half and lengthened.
The seller asserts that all of the new panels and
underpinnings for the limo are made from aluminum and that it was built as an
“advertisement project.” Curiously, work was never finished and the limo is
reportedly only 90 per cent complete.
This Model S isn’t the first victim of the
limousine industry. Over the past decade, numerous premium cars have been
spliced in two and transformed into limos, including a handful of Ferraris.
