LOL at the shill bidding.

 

Now £2000BIN, £1600 start with reserve.

I get the feeling there'll be a £1800 reserve.

Went for £1850. Love how he mentions most of the odds were declared for insurance purposes but also mentions how it is still registered as a 1.2.....

 

So that's most of the mods declared apart from the fact it has a larger tuned engine. Should be ok, as long as you have declared the "custom" interior you'll be fine mate....

I think you can get the motoring version of a digi box for them . E39's are between 'good' cars and classics at the moment, merely old so not worth a lot.

A customer of mine has had an 03 plate 530d auto from new . It's a black Sport, but he had the interior swapped with an SE leather by the dealer before delivery- perfect spec for my fat arse. It's done 85,000 with full main dealer history, last service was £1700!!

He asked what they'd give him for it against a new M4 last month- the reply £1700!

 

Every time I see him I remind him to give me first refusal, but he reckons he'll keep it for another year or so, to save the M4 and X6 from the station car park.

There's low mileage, then there's simply 'hasn't been used and needs recommissioning'. Surely all the rubber hoses and brakes?

It's been relisted a further three times, made £1800 twice, and no bids at £1650 the last time.

Seems they've given up.

Yes, my X1/9 recently threaded needed a bit of recommissioning despite having a full service history and one owner. The problem was lack of use.

When I was at university my second year tutor had one of those in that colour (in 1991). He had recently driven it back from South Africa. All the way!

Local bargain!

This highly desirable* scrote is in the forgotten about corner of a local car lot. Last mot expired July 2010, so it's possibly been there a while.

 

£1695, get it bought for summer! http://www.lowerdaleautos.co.uk/used/ford/escort/cabriolet/barnsley/south-yorkshire/15226266

I'm not sure if this should be here or not £15,000 is a helluva lot of money for a Sud, it's probably the best one in the country but for that sort of money I'd want an early saloon or estate not one of these. By 1984 , with all the plastic shit thrown at them and black trim it must have been hard work for Alfa dealers to tempt buyers away from XR3i s and GTE/I s .
