Re: Another bargain!

a picture of a couple to sell a car ive seen it all.
i also see in the description of the spec being a golf listing the spec is a hard job you just mention stuff all cars have like folding seats and adjustable steering wheel.
my uncles golf is a boggo model off gumtree but the ad said "golf final edition well equipped with cloth seats and cup holder"

Re: Another bargain!
Why do they say "not Honda, Ford, etc"???? what does that do? it's like saying "car for sale"...not a lawnmower, hoover etc.

Re: Another bargain!
ah the not ists as i now call them they really piss me off the selfish effers.
it tricks the search system so if your selling a 306 and you write (not 305 205 gti gtd golf a4 leon)
it means the 306 will appear in the search for say a 305 or a4 my dad was looking at A4s the other night and come across a 306 and he got pissed off by it as well so he rang up just to tell them he looked at the car and it definatley is just a 306 it should say on the bumper or tax book
its really not right it fu**s the whole search on gumtree

Re: Another bargain!
It just makes searching for anything completely pointless, as if you're going to be looking for an A4, see an ad for a 306 and decide that's what you actually wanted
I suppose it's Gumtree's fault for not stopping people doing it.

I love the 70s paninfarina squared off coupes, the 504 coupe too.
Much nicer than the aircraft carrier C+Cs we get now.

Re: Another bargain!
it is a beautiful looking big car and its set up properly as a coupe with a v6 engine driving power to the rear wheels. but id say its a scary car to own reliability wise

only 74k too, just a bit too soon for me.....
Any bets on final price?

Re: Another bargain!
The last decent 2.2 I saw on Ebay with low miles went for £2500. Reckon this will go for similar money, if not more. Looks very nice. Almost tempted to have it myself & transfer the extra seats over. Just a pity Nottingham is such a trek.dogslife wrote:Now here's a tidy looking example, people: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayISAPI. ... 0567059652

One things for sure, it won't go for silly money. 225 different people have looked in less than a day - it'll go for a sensible price.
