Suspiciously cheap Ed30 for sale near me...
« on: February 11, 2014, 02:39:01 pm »

Could be a cheap one this although it does seem a bit odd.. Sold as a trade sale? no warranty.. I notice it has Xenons but no high line or mfsw.

Looks fairly square, however this bit:

"The car has not been prepared by us either mechanically or bodywork and is offered on a trade sale basis with no warranty implied or given"

There is no such thing as 'sold as seen' from a trader, and such statement will mot discharge them from their SOGA obligations.

'If it looks too good to be true'. As Karl said, sold as seen is suspect. It's also only the starting price and not BIN, so could easily rise up by the time the auction is over.

Looks ok to me, it is on auction so may/will go much higher.

He encourages test drives before bidding too so anyone buying is walking into it with their eyes open.

MFSW and highline doesn't come with xenon's, definitely worth checking it out, if that's what you want (and who wouldn't want a steel grey eddy?  :wink: )
