eBay tat volume 3.


Recommended Posts

Didn't mention it because I spent a few days chasing it, but I actually sacked off a 2005 S-Class 500 for £250 this week. It'd stood for a couple of years and some gentle digging (they were pretty hard to communicate with) revealed the suspension 'didn't work' (but then said it took 15 minutes to come up) the gearbox was knack'd and the car wouldn't go over 40mph. Then the wheels weren't included but I have could have some shitty-ish ones for £180 extra (which I would have just sorted with scrap yard wheels) but the final straw was 'it ran for 30 minutes, started shaking, conked out and wouldn't go again'.

 

Probably should have still had it to be honest, but they've sold it now. 

A facelift W220 S500 for 250 quid? I would have bought it on the spot!

I just rang the seller as it's been on my mind all week.

Seller was Irish.

Doesn't have history as he 'bought it from a company'

Stuck in 3rd gear as well as needing a punch to get out of park.

His mechanic has checked and it just needs a new selector @£50

He will accept £1100 just to get it 'out the way'

WCPGW

I think I know where in middlewich this is being sold from. Balls of steel if bought. Its fucked and being sold by travellers.

What are you waiting for?

Early post face-lift base Sierra with hub caps! Brilliant.

EDIT ad says GL??

You've been fooled by some missing wheeltrims , some silver wheel paint and some plastic centre caps. Everything about it is GL from the rev counter and central locking to the sunroof and trim.

 

Only here would we feel cheated that it's not a base. Although £3k seems at least 3 times what it's worth.

Is it wrong that I really like the colour? Just needs some original disco alloys

Noooo, the steelies on the commercial spec models look ace.

 

 

 

However...

 

Just had rear air suspension replaced for coil springs

NO! YOU DOLT! That's the worst thing one can do to a Discovery 2. It makes it wallow down the road like a boat, and makes passengers sea-sick.

eBay & boredom / lack of secks.

A winning combo.

Currently the only bidder on this pile of jizz

If I wasn't so far away etc....   - just to annoy the bejeezus out of the local plod here in Brussels. They'd go effin mental if I rolled around on that - even just in the daytime!
