    Just looking into that 750i above, it really is mind boggling how bad things have gotten with regards these kinds of cars in this country; it could easily pass as a 2-3 year old car.

    Googling the mobile number brings up John Keniry Motors in Youghal, yet no mention of a dealer. Also no registration to work off. Could be still worth a look.

    I have the reg if anyone wants via PM.

    Walked over to have a look at lunchtime as is close to the office.

    quite tired car, back seats very worn and 'wood' centre console on back seats scratched badly to the point of coming off, very bad cosmetically.

    driver door not quite closing flush, and has lots of chips on edge (banging off walls/other cars)

    There was no price tag in the window, I did not speak to anyone to see whether was still for sale once I had seen the car.

    Why would a car which cost so much new be left go like that,recession or other reasons,if I had a car like that I would maintain it.

    Numerous owners who really couldn't afford such a car would be my thinking.

    Be interesting to see how many owners alright,obviously 1st one having spent big would have looked after it problem is others found the cost of running was much higher than thought.

    Hmmm that 750i.....I think I need to buy it. Won't be getting anywhere near Youghal in the near future though.

    If I had a bit more space, i'd buy it this evening, purely to give it whatever TLC it needs and sell on. Something tells me there's something up with it at that price.

    Your link doesn't work, fixed it here :)

    I think I'll just have both the 750i and the S55 AMG :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,667 ✭✭✭Frynge


    Does it look like an excessive gap between the bumper and grill?

    There's a lot of panel-gap fetishism in this country :pac:

  • Registered Users Posts: 674 ✭✭✭Dr.Rieux

    It's gone!!! I always see who tanked the post and if Unkel is one of them it's always worth a look!!

    For all the talk about the early 02-04 models being heaps, you can be sure the majority of them are absolutely fine and for two grand, how could you go wrong. Don't bother with the tax and drive her for a year, job done. No one else seems to care.
