I'll have two please  :y

But seriously, this has to be some kind of B*****x. Surely nobody is really going to pay anything like that, even with two zeros taken off the price

Reserve not met, he's probably set it at £50000.

"Seller ended listing due to error in listing"

1. Future classic
2. the price.


Love how the door paint doesn't match the front wing as well.  Classy.

"Cannot allow test drives, in order to keep the mileage down".

What an absolute wrist shaker.

It's up to £3000 with two days to go, didn't think he'd even get that much.

Somewhere there is a forum full of people bemoaning that the Corsa was the best small car Vauxhall ever produced, that nothing produced today can stand up to it, they'll never buy anything else and that it's surely a classic car now....

Poor, deluded fools  :( Mind you, I believe there's an even stranger phenomenon. Some people think that vauxhalls ancient barge, the omega, is destined for classic status. Ha!  ;D

But fitting a £4 switch and jet washing off the oil will destroy the car's originality, patina and value! And not allowing test drives means that nobody will know that it drives at least as badly as car with average mileage but no maintenance.
