Love to see stuff on eBay with a 'bid price:reserve price' ratio of over 20:1

In this case its 5000:1 with a day and a bit to go.

Two Stroke to Turbo are funny. 99% of the time they'll have a hugely over-inflated idea of what something is worth, but then once in a while you'll get an amazing bargain come up. This one is definitely in the former category though - even as a Saab nut I wouldn't pay more than £2K for a 99 Turbo, however good its condition.

I actually drove around in one of these for a while when I was in the US about ten years back. They're a hoot to drive. With the four-litre engine and the light weight due to lack of transfer box, front diff etc, they are fast as f***, and with the high centre of gravity and primitive suspension they're a hoot round corners, in an "is it going to tip over" kind of a way. Also gr8 4 going sideways on dirt roads. :D

A bit closer to home - probably the best looking Audi ever. It's been sat on that grass for so long the rear wheel has sunk into the ground though, so it's probably rotten as feck underneath.

That Galant listing is amazing. I wonder if he is related to Raymanboy? It bears a lot of the eBay nutter hallmarks.Listing is longer the bible, full of needless insane waffling.Despite these list of superlatives, it isn't Road legal.Car photographed in deep foliage.Unwarranted sexual overtones. Ie; "Sensual leather seats throughout in cream"And that is without mentioning the frankly barking mad wingdings section, which by the way, translates to the following:"The tax and MOT have just expired, so unless you are rellay brave or stupid I would sugest not pissing off plod and bringing a trailer or contaccting a transport company for a quote try http://www.cartransportquoter.co.uk my post code is SA470NG"Why couldn't that just be typed in English? Only God knows.

from the Galant ad...

Most of my IT equipment has been removed from working offices due to upgrades. (SOME IS BRAND NEW). They were working when removed but have not been tested since. Assumed to be working but sold as seen as I do not have time (and in some situations - the equipment) to test them.

Not ebay, but does anyone want my rusty Mazda B1800 before it goes over the bridge? It needs lots of welding to the inner wings and cab, but it has a good bonnet, and new door skins, wings and tailgate with it, and a new engine.One Hundred pounds. I will not post or deliver! :D
