of course there is a reserve... didn;t see that

Always sceptical when there isn't even a piccy.

FUBAR · « **Reply #4 on:** February 06, 2006, 11:46:09 pm »

yeah I know, it almost like he's hiding something...

FUBAR · « **Reply #5 on:** February 08, 2006, 11:22:04 pm »

He's added piccy's now...

It actually looks like quite a respectable car... one thing that does concern me though is that the 2nd bidder is a new eBayer... i'm always a little suspicious of things like that because it stinks of Price fixing by bidding up you're own auctions.

hmmmmmmm......... i'm gonna keep an eye on this one...

As I said, depending on the reserve it sounds like it might be worth a little bit of effort.

Joint purchase ?

Well, to say it hadn't crossed my mind would be lying...

Is short on MOT & Tax though...

Roadkill · « **Reply #14 on:** February 09, 2006, 05:14:13 pm »

Not a major problem . . .

I think this is going to be to expensive for a breaker guys. It has 7 days left and its already at £500

FUBAR · « **Reply #16 on:** February 09, 2006, 05:18:49 pm »

I wasn't thinking a breaker... I was thinking a fixer...

I guess it depends on the price mate

Fixer?

Hmm. Dangerous territory.

We would struggle to see any + return on the car.

Third Gens are two a penny . . . And despite what anyone says - you CAN pick very reasonable ones up for under £3000.

or (soon to be former) rust buckets for £3000

You live and learn, Mate.

You've got MKB, now . . we wouldn't let you make the same mistake again.

FUBAR · « **Reply #21 on:** February 09, 2006, 05:49:40 pm »

Quite, its probably even saved me money TBH as I would have sold the thing by now I reckon, especially if all that rust had been found last year when the arches were done
