that makes sense jeff.

a toy seller with an estate car. reg TOY 7.

if he was a more succesful seller he would have a transit van with TOY 1

or if he was the biggest toy seller out there he would have a flash 2017 MERC. with CORG 1

Box saloon has gone down another £1000.

It's £5995 now. (£2000 less than the start price)

Taking the Reg number off is the kiss of death, no doubt about it

When it gets to £3999.00 I'll offer him £3k....

Location: East Sussex

Oops, my bluff is called! Maybe I'll wait to see if it comes down any further…it's a long way to go to collect and I'm running out of space and I'm still in the process of building another special which I must finish in time for another go at Puy Notre Dame.
Me and my big mouth!

Going by the visible corrosion in the photos I don't think I'd want to drive it as is except onto a trailer. I used to drive around in precarious vehicles in my youth because I thought I was invincible. It took a few years and bad experiences to convince me otherwise.
I'm not in a hurry or desperate for this one...

I've bought cars with MOT certificates....

Location: Wales

It's getting to £4400.00...

Location: Ripon

Sold for £4600.

Still listed at £5995 in a Classified Ad !

Good luck to the buyer

It ain't over till the fat lady sings! I tend not to take too much notice of an eBay sale result when cars are concerned, until I see feedback exchanged as confirmation that the sale actually completed.

Over the years, I have regularly put old cars on my watch list, mainly out of curiosity. It's surprising just how many end up being re-listed due to 'timewaster', 'no contact', 'winning bidder failed to show up', etc. It seems that cars in particular attract bidders who exhibit this sort of behaviour.

It's still listed as a classified on eBay...

Location: Ripon

Yes, it is still listed and still no feedback for the 'Sale' of the car for £4600.

However, the link below shows another listing has now appeared. Number plate stripping is probably the name of the game.

Remember my earlier post about the fat lady? There you go....

The description has changed a little, unless I am mistaken? I wonder if the sale fell through due to the overall poor condition evident to some in the photos.

Location: chillin'

If you now follow the link to the most recent eBay listing in my 25/03 post, the Austin 7 has been totally transformed...... into a 2008 Vauxhall Tigra!

What an odd thing to do.

Location: Hertfordshire

And another;

I couldn't resist complaining to the seller and the reply was that it would be worth more as a special!
