LOL!!!
Since being imported by Richard just last year, it has had a new steering box; starter motor; Koni dampers all round; Wilwood front brake calipers and matching discs; competition cam and lifter set; a matched Edelbrock manifold and carb package; Mallory electronic ignition; K & N filter; Mopar performance rear leaf springs; and a new CentreForce dual friction clutch kit.
Richard does love those leaf springs doesnt he? as Clarkson said Vietnamese suspension! oh yeah and it does seem like Hammonds driving!

He sold his Porsche to purchase this, yet he want's to get rid of it already ?? I wonder what the reason for his actions are. I bet the insurance/petrol costs him a fortune.

This is what the Ebay says -
Q: Hi, Reading through the description, it seems as if a lot of time, effort and money has been spent on this car, do you mind if I ask the reason for sale?
A: Richard imported the car last year and is delighted with it and the modifications made to it since. However, he has found that current work pressures leave little time to cruise and enjoy it at the weekend, and as the Charger is built to do just that, he has reluctantly decided to offer it for sale.
That still doesnt tell you much....

Translation:
I don't have the time to drive it, so I'd rather have the value of the car in my bank account earning interest.

Doesn't he make enough money as a big UK TV star to afford both and a lot more??
What do they say about not driving the car you dreamed of as a kid. Looks like Richard found out that it wasn't the car he imagined it to be.

I'm reading something like: "This is a nice car for cruising, but it is impractical when it comes to daily urban driving, and sadly that's all I'm using my car for at the moment."
