Load space volume?

Don’t think that’s even a thing for a 2 seat commercial.

Last time I registered a crew cab, they measured the length of the load area as a proportion of the wheelbase. I think that applies to 2 seaters as well. Dont know what the criteria is, but its not hard to meet it.

In the end of the day its a declaration - you sign a form that you use it commercially and can offset your costs more efficiently. All that bollocks about windows and seats was thrown out by the EU a few years ago.

Jap imported, commercial converted 350z, id imagine the tax savings would be offset by insurance quotes

Third party extension my friend

Would that even work on a ‘commercial’

And when they ask what commerically you would be using it for the only logical speed and cargo space job suited for it would be takeaway delivery driver, an insurers favourite occupation

Organ or Blood/Plasma delivery driver.

Seems perfect for that job.

At nearly 200k miles, there could be a lot of big bills due soon on a car like that Also, the interior of those Audis can feel/look incredibly worn after that many miles.
Nice but chancey AF, imho.

2007 BMW E60 525i for €1600




Sounds like somebody is having a bad day..

If you have to use google translate don't bother ringing :D

A cheap E60 attracts an especially awful kind of punter these days.

Tzardine

I sent him a text asking if he will hold it for me and take €1250 next week.

Yep. It’s only a hop skip and jump away from ending up on Garda Traffic Twitter on the back of a truck.

Only 24k miles from new, was based on Isle Of Wight which kind of sounds like Arthur Daley speak but the number plate checks out as originally registered there.

No current MOT, and failed the last two MOTs but mileage checks out. Lots of advisories as well.

[Edit: Mot expired Aug 2019]

Ex-RUC Landrover in the background by the looks of it too.

The Bentley looks excellent, pity about the colour.

I texted to offer 750 and an unlocked iPhone 8. No answer yet.

What is going on with this description, sounds like a bad voice-to-text app wrote it:

Complete with a Google images picture of a pirelli tyre, but not a single interior shot. Boggles the mind.

colm_mcm

Says MOT expired December 2016 and it’s SORN.
Could have been MOTD in NI maybe that’s why it’s not showing up.


I suspect it’s been in the country a while and VRT crowd probably know this.

VRT figure is wildly optimistic too.

"Needs 3rd gear synchro".

After that, it would be a waste of bandwidth putting up interior shots.

2.2 diesel auto!

Wonder if it’s non turbo, I believe they’re 80bhp without the turbo.

Duke O Smiley

3ce, so non turbo I think?

selectamatic

It'd be a fantastic car for out on one of the islands.

The exporters will have it though.

colm_mcm

You’d have to wonder what sort of head case thought importing that was a good idea. It’s probably been faultless though.
