ebay 'BARGAINS'

[Minimad5]

I think you've confused the intention of this thread, unless you think £155 is a stupid price to pay for a solid gold autoshite Renault 12From the first page...

Whats the most comically overpriced old car you can find on eBay?

Dang in my haste to share it with everyone i posted it in the Wrong thread !

Oh dear... I'm pretty sure it is wuvvum's one, there is a thread on here for it.

Thinks it's Torstens actually. I'd love it myself but alas I cannot....

[wuvvum]

Yup, it's Torsten's. Mine was a green estate - went to someone off RetroRides.

Well to be fair, he's not said anything much but has filled out more than I have ever seen filled out in the description.

WTF!, £2000 for a Knackered Montego that need's respraying and a new bonnet and undersealing, Has the world gone mad?!.

 

The pics do not show the car in her best light

When is the best light?, Midnight?

[RedSparrow]

Re: Montego,Chap seems a little confused:

the car will be sold with a years Mot

The car is not motd untill oct 2009

The car is Mot until nov 09

Was he drunk?

[Pillock]

Hasn't that Montego been offered at a similarly bonkers price a few times now? The reg and mismatched door rings a bell, as does the location for the pictures. Might have dropped all of £500 since the owner's last dabble with recreational drugs though.

[Pete-M]

Sweet Mary Jane.I don't give a fuck if it's got solid gold chassis rails.Mental.

I doubt it cost £75k to build, but as an example my 1300 Sport is getting 300 odd hours of restoration. How much does the average bodyshop charge? £30 an hour? There's £9k if you get the work done professionally in the UK. Plus parts.Dry sumped 200 bhp Pinto - give him the benefit of the doubt - £3k with pumps, carbs, etc. Aeroquip hoses etc £300, Suspension £1000, Atlas LSD axle £800, Quaife box £800, Minilites £600, roll cage £500 or so, brakes £500. Yada yada yada. It all adds up.I reckon that cost £25k to build. £45k is taking the piss somewhat.

[Pillock]

I dunno - if I owned a garage/bodyshop and some guy said he wanted to spend up to £45k on a Mk1 Escort, I'd make sure it cost £45k!Wherever there's a fool and his money, there'll be someone to part them.

[Pete-M]

He reckons it cost £75k to build.....

[Milford Cubicle]

Aye, that Montego was up for around the same price a while back.

It sounds like the owner just wants it to go to an enthusiast, rather than being fully mental. I wonder if he'd budge significantly on the price if he knew it was going to a good home? I hope he isn't deluded, as it'll just end up festering away otherwise.

 

 

Slightly better pics this time round anyway, at least 2 have the whole car in frame!

Vuaxhall Viva Estate with 1800 manta engine and dodgy bodykit, Yours for the bargain starting price of £5800!

[FredTransit]

Oh no are the Vauxhalls catching up?

[brammy777]

That viva estate looks like manta, if you squint.Peope do seem to be charging more for vauxhalls, there seems to be quite a few optimistic chevette sellers.

[peter9000uk]

Wonder what kind of lash up is under the bonnet? Conveniently no pics I notice. For that money he could have at least put some decent wheels on it and sourced a Magnum dash

"THIS OFF ROADER IS 500 BECAUSE THATS WOT THE PARTS ARE, I COULD BREAK IT FOR THAT "
