Thoughts and opinions please....
« on: 14 December 2006, 09:45:16 »

On this.....

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=003&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=130057286038&rd=1&rd=1

Now i know what to look for and i know the car ( the mv6 marque)

I am seriously contemplating this for her indoors ( estate with room power and towbar)

Has anyone seen this listed before, any one any dealings with seller or any other objective points to make.

As i cant view i would need to buy on spec and reputation and nip down to pick it up.

Whats our thoughts on a good price as i am in no rush to buy i wont pay going rate  ;D

cheers
Mark

I have certainly seen this and the red saloon up for sale once or twice previously.  Sticks in my mind as both are the same shade and piccys taken at the same road!  Cannot recall what price it (failed) to make though.

Seller is obviously a trader and he doesn't hide it.  A quick squint through his feedback and what he's sold/price paid adds up OK.

Car itself looks not too bad.  Overspray on the ROS door shut rubber?  Got the 'phone radio, no mention of the belt/tensioners, missing washer jets.  Panels look OK.  Tyres - make, tread depth and wear etc?  You know the script.

Probably worth a punt but, as always, your eye is your merchant and only spend what you can afford to loose....

On face value it looks a tidy motor, but tyre kicking in person can't be beaten. Maybe someone on here who lives a little closer may be able to see it for you, I'm a little far out especially this time of year in the catering trade.

your right about viewing in person - problem is for sale at resonable price and resonable spec omegas are rare in Scotland :o

but if anyone is on the doorstep of this one above or the other one i am watching below.... :y ;)

Just spoken to the seller Markie. His name is Marcus and I have bought from him before (honda legend coupe). He is a genuine guy and assures me the car is spot on. I know he values his reputation.
On the down side, he is waiting on someone coming to see it tonight and reckons the guy is pretty keen.

Good luck mate.

He assures me there are no issues. He is looking for two grand but doubts he'll get it.

If you want my advice Markie, unless you are 100% sure, sleep on it. Things always look different in the cold light of day :y
