this car?

It's on eBay and he has a set reserve of £7500, I think it's a little low, but has this chap frequented this forum and would it be a genuinely good purchase?

Not sure its been on here but looks a decent bet if its been well maintained with full ARUKSH.

I do like the red leather.

Be interesting to see what it actually goes for - hopefully a lot more than £7,500!

 

[159john]

Sold for £7,777 - sounds like someone got a lot of car for the money

Looks like somebody got a bargain

I've been watching this car with interest. I've been searching for a 159 for a while, but they are stupidly priced by dealers and the same stock has been around since I started looking last October. I've been hoping for a private buy but again very few come along. Most I've seen are high milers, ex fleet cars or company vehicles (usually given away by mileage and phone cradle). I really wanted to bid on this but wouldn't commit myself without viewing it first, finishing the auction on a Thursday was a bit silly, if it was at the weekend I'd have gone to view with cash. Anyway, if it's in good nick and well maintained someone has got themselves a good deal...............

Wow! A great price (depending if you're a future seller or future buyer of course!)

Bit of a steal there. If it's as genuine as it looks.

You should have a look a mine for sale then twincamms- Ive owned her from new, 77K miles, FARSH and belts/tensioners just replaced when a modified head was put on last week.
