Lots of bullshittery going on too.

Says on the advert that the MOT "expires" on 22/7/2021. Except it doesn't. It expired in February and doesn't appear to have been at all dealt with.

So we've got a 2006  poorly spec'd import (that says 2017 on the advert, except that's when it was imported) that hasn't had an MOT for 8 months and they want £7k for it. Bonkers.

It looks like something from the 1980s.

Having not managed to sell it for £7K during the past year, he has improved his chances by now asking £10k for it. 😀

Looks more like £7.50 worth of stuff than £7.5k

Still says 6995 in the description too. What a clown 😂

Not so much a 'bargain'*, but the absolute worst photo I've seen on Facebook Marketplace, and that's saying something:

How about this? FIFTEEN thousand dollars for a 240k mile Honda Civic saloon.

[warch]

It’s only done 7000 miles a year, it’s just done 34 of them. 
 

$15large is a bit spendy you can practically buy a new one for that tho

I paid £500 for mine about 15 years ago. It was a horrid piece of shit back them and failed it's next MOT on rot and all 4 strut top mounts. Some mad fucker saved it, and it lived on for nearly 10 more years after me! Still would never imagine it being more than a £500 car when they did all their depreciation after about 5 years old! 

Mine probably only had about 30k miles back then as well, off the top of my head. 

My wife had a  fiesta from new when I met her in 1993 , it was about a year old , I couldn't believe how bad it was for a new car , 4 speed gearbox , 1962 spec as in fuck all in it apart from some stripes because it was a special edition .

It amazed me anyone would buy such a piece of crap after a test drive,  worst bit was a 220 mile drive to Heathrow screaming it's tits off at 70mph , the drive back after a 10 hour flight wasn't something I was looking forward to 

It was that bad I PX'd it for a Renault laguna as soon as we got back

I liked that laguna , she didn't like the extra 3ft though , ripped the back door skin on a Luton van within a month

MrsDS did a similar thing when she collected our CX familiale after we had been borrowing a friends LHD Ford Pinto whilst the CX was being repaired for other stuff. Oh how I laughed.

[Spurious]

Near 20 grand for a ten year old Transit that's presumably had some MOT standard "welding". 

The sooner these #vanlyfe wankers fuck off the better.

The Car Transporter drivers always used to treat these like absolute shit, as apparently they were a pain to load

still with 39 delivery miles on the odometer

 

Has it got 35 miles on it, or 39 miles on it?

Who fuckin' knows! Because there are no photos of the odometer reading!

 

What a load of horse shit. It irks me when a car ad gets the mileage wrong, but especially when that 4 mile difference is such a significant % of its miles!

[aotb]

If you really want one, buy it direct and you’d probably save a bundle.  https://ams.uk/catalogue.cgi?preview=y&auction=2101

Yes another Dell Boy van.

This one is only £8K (all but). It is an empty shell, it is not roadworthy , it is an ex London Olympics, it is a ex plastic pig.

The Ebay advert refers to a Silverstone Auction. This is it,

Ironic reg. They can't have had much fun with it in 35 (or 39) miles. Then again it's a Land Rover so maybe more fun to look at than to drive.

Pair of tyres for £15 on Marketplace, got to be a bargain?
