As said, unless a simpleton bids he has no chance. I was wondering if he could have stood any further back to take the pictures?  :o :o :o

Hmm, sounds really interesting Spongebob. I'll need to give it some thought, though.  ;) ;D

BTW, can you fix it for me to have a Kirby vacuum cleaner salesman to visit? I'm desperate. ;)

I am intrieged, the interior looks like an old prefacelift, yet the age is 2003. OK, several cans so far, would this be an old Opel pre 1999 that has been registered over here, and magically gain a few years ?. If I take my car over to Foreign Shores and register it, and then bring it back, could I end up with a 2007 Omega ?.

Interior is facelift... car is probably genuine, but it is odd to see an RHD Opel these days...

RHD Opel .... hmmmm ... wouldn't that describe one bought from (southern) Ireland ?

But surely even GLS spec would still have alloys ... which suggests it's ex-plod - but conveniently there's no close-up pictures to prove that either way - plus with a 2.2 engine ????

'The car is available one month after payment.'  :o

i couldn't find that bit, has he took it out?

Car is registered as an Opel, so not rebadged, they are available, seen a few UK RHD ones about, and indeed it is a 2.2 (2172cc), but in my opinion, its a scammer, probably doesnt even have the car, just wants someone to bid £2000 and pay it so he can run off with the cash

why else would someone waste an advert like that? zero feedback, nothing to lose
Title: Re: Is he havin a laugh??
Post by: Jay w on 23 August 2007, 14:26:30
hmmmmm if nothing else it is a crap description and his original request of the car being released one month after payment was a joke.

However looking at the ad it looks pretty straight, the seller is in Essex, the car was essex registered when new/brought into country, it could have come in one of two ways, 1) southern ireland or 2) europe as a personal import, maybe the guy served in the forces beforehand

Opel have different specs that we do in the UK, there was a time when you couldn't get the MV6 in the UK it was a europe only model, as it is the basic model maybe opel save the cash by giving it wheel trims and steelies.

just a couple of ideas....still think it is over priced though

I have asked hom a few Q's on Ebay, will see how he responds

Update.....

The car was bought as a company car, he bought it from the company, the companies head office was germany and they dealt direct with Opel, sounds feasable....

He is selling as he has now bought his new company car off the company and is using that.....

This could possibly be genuine, but as you said Will he hasnt got any fedback which wouldn't help
Title: Re: Is he havin a laugh??
Post by: Danny on 23 August 2007, 14:51:49
his lack of feedback and lack of.. well.. advert, means he'll be extremely lucky to even get a bid!
