The only and only line, first to see will buy! I highly doubt it.

Going by second picture the engine is well gone.

It won't pass the next one unless someone with very good skills and alot of time on their hands buys it.

The seller was really struggling to come up with the 11 items for the list most are just a load of crap and not real upgrades at all.

12k they will be waiting a while you'd get a lot newer clean discovery 3 for that money.

The steering wheel is upside down too...

There is a thread by some lad who wants to buy a golf with a knackered engine for I think 3.7k so I'm thinking of telling him to go for that one.
Fecking bargain that

but that golf was drivin like new before he wrote it off.

What worries me is how the seller highlights the fact that cartell check won't reveal it was crashed.

Long nct - nice bonus

Will pass the next one with flying colours...

Madness.

Must've slammed his head off the A-pillar when he crashed it the fool.
The rear axle even looks way out of whack, that car is more twisted than the wife's bedroom antics after too much vodka.

If the chassis plates etc and logbook are intact that could be a cheap upgrade for a UK car or a stolen one.

Crikey!
It looks like they probably had to put the engine back in after the crash. Once they'd found it!

Ah surely it's not even salvageable at this point. There is not a single side of the car that did not see damage.
Sorry for being rough, but I wouldn't even expect interior to book not covered in blood.

Geometry of while car is so ****ed, that even with modern machines you won't restore it.

I doubt there's any LEGIT use of that car, ringer fo'shizzle.
I have a feeling I know where that is and all.

The golf is actually not to bad...

A tap of the hammer will get those few little dints out.

I love this quote: "They have been running this multi-million euro operation for some time and it is for this reason that authorities moved.”

So, if you are a small size thief running a smaller operation, you're be fine - nobody will bother you...

Hmmmm....Granard eh??!! Something about that place..... Can't quite think......

Id the very kane to know what it is about granard that you know

From the artice: A senior source explained: "I don't know whether it is greed or naivety but people were coming in and asking to buy vehicles they had seen online while gardai were swarming around the place on Monday."

Fookin hell, is there no stopping people? Asking to buy while guards are swarming the place, no wonder guys are at that when people are that gullible and willing to hand over money for a deal.

You'll find people won't give a toss where the car / van comes from if they are getting a deal.
Literally.
People are naive though. When they ask for a service history and get a fax sheet that is so obviously copied or just made up....
And, then they go "ah shur, that's grand". I'm saving a pile of cash on this deal.
I've seen it with my own eyes - people become blind to these scams when they think they are getting a bargain.
"But that's really cheap!!"

LOL! a non turbo Chaser for €12,000:rolleyes:

Its not even the 2.5 litre version non turbo, its just the bog standard 138hp 2 litre, he would be lucky to get 3k for it. Also not NCTed.
