Default My car failed to sell on ebay :wall:

I'm well annoyed

4 watchers yet only 1 bid

Had my hopes up for that.... Why would folk not want to buy a car with a load of history and receipts?!



So frustrated

Too true.

Anyway, the reason it didn't sell is the same reason EVERY FUCKING TIME someone posts this - asking too much wedge.

Nah spadge I only had an £800 reserve (although I was hoping to make a bit more).... The car's not perfect, not at all, but would have thought it was a fair price for what it was TBH

Seems an honest ad to me and for that money, that surely could be a Christmas present for someone. Like Rudey says, could be less money about coming up to Christmas.

Good luck anyway

I might just make a project out of the fooking thing instead. Got no garage space but nobody can moan about me doing "repairs" to my daily driver out int he cul-de-sac

Might just get an RST engine and bang in a recon gearbox and clutch and sort everything out.

milage is a bit dodge as well from that ad!!

do you genuinly not know how many its done then?

clocks say 27,000 (?) but you said yourself that wrong cos new clocks went in. stamped up to 90,000 which is the highest the service book goes?

so it could be 90k + 27k.....or basically anything!!!?

It could be mate, yeah. I don't know. I do know it only did 2k miles last year tho, had head skimmed and new gasket in 02, etc.

As said above, I might hev to go the project route.
