Looks a big dodgy but that could just be me.

What country is the plate?

perelaar · 17-02-2015, 11:53

Irish plate, description also says import from Ireland. Looks good, apart from the fact that the seller has only very recently joined ebay and has no feedback yet. Can't find it on other used car websites...

Lazy-Ferret · 17-02-2015, 11:55

So the fact that the front end is obviously quite badly stoved in, but it's still

VERY CLEAN & TIDY INSIDE AND OUTSIDE
VERY GOOD CONDITION
VERY CLEAN AND TIDY
NO DAMAGE

How does the seller think he can get away with that?.

Also, does anyone know how you would stand, buying a car with no paperwork? I can't see it ending well really... You have absolutely no way of knowing or checking to see if it is kosher.

Irish plates, but you bought it in Nottingham
No paperwork you say?
From an auction?

Hmmm, and now you want us to let you keep the car...

perelaar · 17-02-2015, 13:10

Hadn't even seen the damage to the front. Lacking paperwork, indeed, spotless as well

If he is a trader as his user name suggests how come he is brand new on e bay yet wants bidders to have a track record ?

More than wings, rear arches are probably shot too.

Known import route,Japan(possibly stolen),Saudi,Ireland,papers lost in transit or impossible to translate from Japanese then on to UK,could be a 4 year either way "genuine" age.Some things/people don't change to be sure

Yeah bin those bumpers, that's the spirit

I've seen a couple of 2.8s go for a steal over the last few months. But looking you start to realise how much rarer the old style 4.2s have gotten and they are increasing in price for sure.

I'd love to make a whitbread style buggy with patrol running gear (axles/gearbox/transfer box) and maybe engine or LR v8.

I can't think what it will be like in 2/3 years, Won't be as many mint ones coming up. They already command 4-5k easily when they do now.
