"Garden Feature"???

So does that mean they expect some rich guy to use it as a centerpiece in his garden or does that mean something else across the pond?  :confused:

If you read the second link you would see that it has been restored to be a static display/museum feature.

I was reading the first link, and it said that the jet was only $113,000. So I'm thinking "I got to go get a loan real quick this is cheap", than I find out it was not airworthy  :furious.
