Please just look at this listing , this idiot believes the registration is worth £2000

 

it is AAA 924C

 

Here is the listing wording originally...

 

I brought her because i really wanted to fix her up and bring her back to life but i do not have the time nor the money plus i need a bigger car because i am the only one in my house hold that can drive and i pick my neice up from nursery. The price is high purely because the number plates being AAA and having chrome numbers and letters with a black background is worth roughly £2000 on their own. Now the car does need a bit of work, welding being the main repair needed, needs new tires, brake lights do not work, the brakes need a look at, fuel gauge does not work, wipers do not work, lights are tempremental sometimes they work sometimes they dont, same with the horn sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt, indecators do not work, engine is fine that i kno of , she does start but hasnt been started in a few months, the seats are a bit worn but she is over 40 years old passenger side being the worst (see pictures), spare tire and manufactures jack included. ive listed all that i know of the car but i recommend coming to see the car personally.

 

THen he changed it to...

 

''I brought this minor because i had the intention of fixing it up but i dont have the money. There are a few things that do not work or need replacing; tires, fuel gauge, head lights, indicators, interior light, some welding needs to be done, thats all i can think of off the top of my head, it does start and run fine but has not been started in a few months. The number plates are worth roughly £2000 on their own. Usual wear and tear from a 47 year old vehicle. I would advise a personal view of the vehicle before any bids are made. Cash on collection. No returns. advertised elsewhere so i hold the right to withdraw at anytime.''

Nice old cars in a shite sort of way, but £5k - worth? :shock:

XJS is well fit especially in that colour. I'd say it was worth about half that though. I could be completely wrong...

Posted

It looks the business, but I would just be waiting for problems to happen. XJS seem to fetch all manner of pricing; I wouldn't know how to value one!!!

A bit much I reckon. People are starting to push up the prices of early ones to see if collector interest is there. Not sure it really is yet, but they are appreciating.

Now with new pictures! Remarkably even worse than the previous lot - Christ he is cheap saving 9p or whatever it is per new photo.

I forgot to mention she needs a new handbrake cable.

 

New description too, no word of watchers... yet.

I have changed my mind strictly NO OFFERS I am not giving her away !

That oil filter is a piss take. You can still get those, and the part number is the same. EFL134 for Ford CVH, EFL125 for Ford x Flow/Valencia etc. £4 squire. We used to sell those by the "case" (10 filters) back when I worked in my mate's shop. It got to the point where we knew the popular part numbers by heart!

That R5 is hawt.

 

If I win the lottery I'm going to buy it, spend twenty grand on a 'nut 'n' bolt' restoration, then advertise it on Car & Classic at eight grand for the rest of eternity.

Is that a fucking great big dent in the boot lid? Along with no mot, tax and handbrake this has to be #1 bargain of the year. Surely this motor should be in autoshite calendar 2013 :twisted:

I'm starting to feel slightly sorry for the guy, I mean, the penny's clearly never going to drop and no-one's ever going to cough up that amount of cash for an MOT-less 17 year old Peugeot. It's going to be an endless circle of relistings, changed user IDs and huge red angry text complaining that after the 78th attempt, he's got 24,409 watchers and NO BIDS!!!!!! and the handbrake still doesn't work because there's a fossilised chocolate coin stuck in the rear brake drum.

Posted

Can anyone think of a more miserable way of getting from A to B than this? Because I'm struggling.

 

It is cheap though.

I really need a base spec untaxed or MOT'd dented Artic white Peugeot 405 Saloon preferably near South Wales with a wankered handbrake so that I can't park it in the Valleys. Can anyone out there help me?

Maybe there will be another scrappage scheam !

 

Cars have to have an MOT to qualify - oh no!
