Yeah, I put it in the why don't you just scrap it thread when it was still a quid.

People can't throw shitloads of money at him quickly enough though.

Madness.

That Mini Pickup looks like someone cut it up and put it where it belongs in a skip. Along comes metal merchant chancer and thinks that's worth good coin that, stick it on ebay....

The Merc on the previous page looks like it has OM NOM NOMMED a mechanic.

That Clio is tested til Nov 18, still wouldn't touch it with a 50ft pole though

7 bags for the 605! Christ!

 

It might be the only one left but its a complete orphan, there isnt a market for Peugeot 605s let alone one at silly money. I'd say its worth £5-600 no more.

 

I read the ad expecting it to say it had done 4000 miles or something but its done over 170k!

Mihai is probably the first name of the owner, so its done Romanian chap selling old bangers.

The other thing is that it might be the only working one on the N-plate, but there might still be others from different years....

Whether its the only one left or not is immaterial, the select band of people likely to buy a 605 (me included) wouldn't give anything like a tenth of what he's asking.

 

Credit to him if he can get 7 grand on it though. Nice earner he'll have give some old giffer £150 part ex on it. Expecting to flip it for that money is madness though!

Somewhere in darkest France the members of shitvoiture.fr are now getting excited about shipping hoards of 605s over here for mega €

The 605 pricing is even more hilarious given there is actually another SVDT Automatic on eBay, for £995. 

 

Which coincidentally is also being flipped by the hopeful seller who paid £600 (?) or so for it a few months back on Auto Trader. Proof that there isn't really a market for them...even if I would happily buy the eBay one if I had the cash.

The 605 is just a bigger 405. They were a difficult sell when in production, and it looks like nothing's changed. The 607 continues that tradition.

"Right, let's get some paint on this and we'll advertise it for £25k.

 

Use up those aerosol cans just like I showed you. Give those pipey things under the bonnet a brush over with some silver too, luvly jubbly.

Oh and look, I've found a half-full spray-can of Allegro blue on the shelf as well.

 

Look at that now, looks 'riginal, dunnit?

 

This time next year we could be millionaires".

Fuck me that is a whole new level of optimism! It looks utterly, completely, mind-bogglingly average.

Had new wings that don't line up with the front valance too, and wanker silver on black illegal plates, I bet it's full of pudding

Posted

No, apparently; "The car is completely original, no welding, no rust, no filler and even has original sills!"

 

Obvs original doesn't apply to paint (and lack of S stripes), and no filler doesn't apply to the filler I can see where the wing joins the front valance. I think there's an extra zero in the price.

I think £25k must be a "misprint" too. Has to be £2.5k, which is still overpriced IMO.

 

The half-arsed bodgery is hopefully only cosmetic so can easily be reversed with a little bit of time and work to make a decent example. It does the car no favours as it stands.

 

Quote from the ad -

"No dents or scratches although the paint is dull so could do with a respray. There is a slight noise in the back axel, unsure what it is . . . "

 

For £25k ??

 

He who dares wins. The world's your lobster.

£25k Cortina shows no MOT history prior to current test either (unlike the £7k 605 which has plenty of fails and advisories back to 2006)
