    indeed I doubt an enthusiast would want the 2.8 and one with little nct left on it, definitely the 1k mark

    That's exactly it. It's appeal is limited to enthusiast which is only going to be a small audience. It will have to be pretty good for even an enthusiast to pay 2.5k for it. With a short test would an enthusiast really pay that much?

    If it's in good nick and as genuine as he says, then yes. A set of those wheels alone can sell anywhere between €600-€1000!

    I'm well aware of what an Enthusiast will pay for a 7 Series and given what I sold mine for I'm fairly sure that car is worth €2-€3k or somewhere in between.

    To say that car is only worth €1k is just silly but there's no accounting for stupidity sometimes. Even with a short NCT an enthusiast would still buy that.

    Perhaps the many advertisers that have priced their 7 series at 1k and less are silly and stupid too?

    Or

    Perhaps you paid over the odds for your one? Lol

    I like how eastern european cars are always wildly over priced when they're brought over here

    Sure you couldn't even drive it away even if it worked perfectly.
    Bad market to try and sell that in. If it was at least registered here.

    I know you're not the wisest chap out there but if you could read English you'd see that what I sold mine for was considerably more than what I paid for it. Does that make sense to you?

    You are seriously just wearing out the buttons on your keypad responding to this.
    Just smile and say yes.

    A bit high but he is playing on the utter rarity card. I've seen maybe one around Europe and they do make a nice noise.
    Id want to see pics of it in Ireland at least.

    And the photographic evidence of what a bad idea it is to put HID bulbs in standard headlamps.

    Bit disrespectful putting in offers when you have no intention or the money to back it up

    It's impossible to bid and purchase items from different countries?

    A bmw... Covered in diamonds... In Moldova... And he is trying to sell it on adverts.ie for 60k.
    Seems completely legit.
    Although a quick google does tell there is a z4 in Moldova with 250k crystals attached to it.
    Obviously money doesn't buy taste.

    Right. So lets say I've got dementia and I actually call the seller and offer 60k.
    Seller (in swords funny enough) says "yies niet problem my frend yies car is in Moldova".
    Grand says I and we book our trip to Moldova.. With a complete stranger to a strange country with 60k in my pocket.
    The chances of this being completely legit are as likely as me banging a nun tomorrow morning.
    Its beyond idiotic to think that anyone would do that.
    60k and the car isn't even in the eu.
