b19jow Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 If it was the grey one at £2900. I emailed as soon as it went up and got this one backHello ,Thank you for your interest in purchasing my car.The vehicle is in good condition, has no technical damage at all, no scratches or dents, no hidden defects, no smoking. It's fun and robust to drive. Technical inspection and emissions testing is passed and stamped as well. It has title of ownership, cleared of any obligations or fees and comes with all the documents you need to register it. I have worked in UK for the last 2 years and I've purchased the car there. My company wanted me back home, so currently I'm in Rome, Italy. I've bring the car home with me. I decided that is better to sell it because I don `t use it anymore (the wheel is on right side and is very difficult for me to drive it in Italy) and it `s a pitty to keep such a car and not to use it. I realize that is a cheap price for such a car but my special situation makes me do things that I wouldn't do in normal Circumstances.The price I am looking for my car is £2,900 including the shipping costs,insurance and handling(delivery to EUROPE). You will not have to pay additional taxes for this.Please feel free to email me with any questions you may have.YEA COOL I'LL SEND YOU THE MONEY????

Philplop Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 If they put them up at a realistic price they'd have a much better chance of people falling for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
