Not sure where the 460 bhp is from but I can't see it with the relatively mundane mods done to the car..tiglon wrote: ↑Fri Aug 20, 2021 1:50 pmThe green and the spoiler are really not for me, but I respect how much time and thought has gone into creating it. If I was him I would have taken the green off before listing. Obviously a lot of money spent on it but 460bhp from standard turbos sounds like a big bill waiting to happen?Timmyboybunter wrote: ↑Thu Aug 19, 2021 9:02 pm Interesting. Is this a forum car? Don't recognise it.

IIRC he did say he would sell if he couldn't fix the misfire - but I assume it was fixed as it isn't mentioned in the advert.Ole gits rule wrote: ↑Thu Aug 19, 2021 8:52 pmNice looking car - wonder what the project is, yellow 35iS maybePondrew wrote: ↑Thu Aug 19, 2021 8:44 pm https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/174898163846 ... %7Ciid%3A1
Has this been for sale before? It seems to ring a bell.

Yes, that will not help plus its been for sale for 2 months so I would assume the MOT has run outtiglon wrote: ↑Mon Aug 23, 2021 5:04 pmThey need to drop the "months MOT" number as wellOle gits rule wrote: ↑Mon Aug 23, 2021 4:42 pm Still dropping in price - be under £10k shortly from a £12k starting price - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/304117672446 ...

The £10k 23i on ebay's MOT runs out on 14th June 2022. The Gov's online MOT history checker is one of the very few useful things they have done in the recent past
All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

There are a lot of private sellers doing the same thing as this at the moment from what I've seen. I think they see that prices are going up, select a couple of dealer examples as a bench mark and pitch theirs at the same level or higher (because after all it MUST be a better car than the tat sold by dealers)!
It clearly doesn't work. This is the first time that I can remember where many private sales, for a comparable car, are higher than dealer prices and they will undoubtedly be bleating about not being able to sell their cars for the right price.

That is defo what is happening and I am sure some have got away with it as there is a shortage of metal out here, Ash said this one was not that good to start with so no idea why they think they can get away with it.Pondrew wrote: ↑Mon Aug 23, 2021 7:55 pm There are a lot of private sellers doing the same thing as this at the moment from what I've seen.

It actually shows that some the cars sold on here have been very reasonably priced and seemed to sell quickly
