Default Rs 500's on pistonheads

Why are these 2 Rs500's still for sale?
Normally 500's sell quickly.
They seem to of been on for approx a year.
Is it the seller?

Remember the current climate doesnt effect people who have 25k 30k spare to buy a toy

These cars are changine hands for much more than 25k and sell within weeks

I have a list of people looking for low miles MINT 500"s and they have big budgets

RE: the black one for sale


"AS IM NOT TO BOTHERED ABOUT WEVA IT SELLS OR NOT"




When dealing with those kind of £ figures, I personally could not and would not deal with any mong that a) types like the above and b) has that attitude. What a prick.

Also the fact that he fails to mention that it is on the list AND the dubious 510 "+" @ wheels figure, confirms my suspicions that the seller is an utter plebian

There was a post about the grey one similar to this just last week, can't remember the exact reason but i think it was basically due to not having all the "bits" so it put people off.
Totally agree with Dave on the black one, before i even read his post i looked at the advert and thought, "what a cock", is he trying to be proper gangsta or just has learning difficulties?

the guy lives not too far from me and i have seen these cars up on the ramps at my mates garage - gotta say the moonstone is mint underneath - havent seen the black one for ages.

The guys name is Ash and he has loads of RS's and thus not too bothered about selling them as he really doesnt need the money.

Didnt know the black one was on the register tho.

He does trade quite a few cars tho.
