    What was the price on it?

    It was up for £12,999
    Off the top of my head from seeing it a few months ago around 9/10k sterling.

    Didn't know it was up before.

    Screen sizes have just gone ridiculous at this stage. I presume its to justify the price of what at first glance looks like like every other 5 series repmobile out there.

    Apart from the colour. That looks well.

    Why is that 93k? Surely that's at least 30k overpriced for what is a repmobile?

    It would seem to me that we are being told every other day how things are on track then they are not.
    Then they are.. then they aren't.
    Now they aren't sure.
    Bahh

    the base price for the Msport touring is about 60K. The other 30K is extras. 30K of extras is just ridiculous but is possible if you add every option in the online configurator

    Nobody (in their right mind) buys those privately, so I presume it was a cancelled contract order that they are cheekily trying to punt at full retail.

    I'm sure there is a massive discount to any serious inquiry.

    TBH it belongs in the Dreamers thread.

    This car was purchased by a dealer recently and now being sold privately. Any thing specific to watch out for?

    This was for sale, but it wasn't for sale, but it's up for sale again but it might not be for sale. It's for sale if I get my price but even if you offer me that it still might not be for sale.

    Grade A bell end here.

    So, this dealer promised on message that cars is not damaged - Still got it with me.

    I had my doubts and ordered the report online.Spend 10e and get a report - Then trusting blindly.

    Guess what - See this :

    Not only that his auction sheet did not show all the info. His report only showed A1/A2 only.

    Car was auctioned in 2019 and failed. Finally managed in 2020.

    The auction sheet only says that every panel had a scratch of some description, which in most cases a polish will take out. The G on the windscreen is a chip, I'm not sure why you think the dealer is hiding 'damage'.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,092 ✭✭✭✭Duke O Smiley


    Yeah, there’s nothing on that sheet that would be cause for concern.

    I had to look at the photo of the car twice, I thought you were showing a clean auction sheet and a photo of the car damaged :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,297 ✭✭✭✭ohnonotgmail


    Is it just my imagination or is there a black plastic sheet taped over the rear panel?

    Please see rear passenger side. Zoom and see please. Entire side is hit

    I see it as damaged.

    hard to tell but it certainly isn't right. That panel is a B2 on the auction sheet.

    Not only glass is gone, passenger rear door had marks and boot is damaged too.

    Thought it was just reflection. No better photo?

    Edit: pretty sure that's what it is, look at the floor and rear door.

    Hit the switch to keep the lights on.

    The window surround is over it. It was a shadow it would be over the window surround

    That's the only one. Reflection looks unlikely as even passenger door has marks. Looks like a high loory hit it from side

    1. Glass is gone
    2. Door has lines
    3. Rear boot is gone.

    I could be wrong, but imo it's just reflection.

    Maybe you are right guys, but the resolution of the picture sux, so it's hard to tell.

    Theres absolutely nothing wrong with that car. Your spamming about 6 different threads now at this stage

    Good spot! Didn't see that.

    If there was something wrong with the car it would be on the auction sheet. No question about it. Anyone who imports cars from Japan will tell you this

    The only notes on the auction sheets are A’s and B’s which are barely noticeable scratches

    If the car was damaged it would be grade R

    All I’m seeing is people agreeing its a reflection

    I was about to post the same. The past few days he has been posting the same thing in different threads. Start a new thread for yourself is what you should have done.

    What's the outcome. Shadow or damage.

    Still don't know, as I said resolution sux. When I looked at your first post picture, straight away it was reflection for me. But as I said I could be wrong. On the other hand, would they post it like that with auction sheet saying otherwise.
