Told the owner it was worth that sort of price at santa pod earlier in the season,but he didn\'t believe me.He thought he\'d get 16k for it.:spank

Does anyone know the history of this car?
Seems like every new owner puts it up for sale straight away??

Think thet imported it into the uk earlier this year. The owner asked me how much she was worth,my answer was not alot without i certified engine rebuild. His reply was "well its got to be worth 16k atleast". He didn\'t seem to know alot about the rotary scene or the techincals of his car. Probably bought it in an auction,thinking he\'d make a killing on it in the uk. He said it had a fresh rebuild but no way to prove it.He got quite irrate when i said his word didn\'t really count for anything and the cars most likely to be worth between 5 n 6k.

Hahaha. He\'s got no idea. Even the triple rotor on here only went for £14.5.
If it was a genuine veilside car, maybe veilside have a record of the engine?!

[pete sparrow]

If it was the genuine article why aren\'t veilside selling themselves? Also why if its the most recent veilside showcar is it running their oldest bodykit? I asked him if he could get proof of the build to help the sale but he seemed to think he couldn\'t,i didn\'t ask why.Not happy with my pricing he asked other rotary owners and he pretty much got the same answers.

I love them seats:King

it is  spoof ad.
Loads of them out there unfortunately

**BEWARE** (My personal opinion) I emailed this guy with Zero feedback selling it for £4500 shipped. I asked him why he was selling it. His answer was that he had a family crisis and he had to sell it cheap. He also said that you could not view or drive the car but if you wanted it, he would set up a proper transaction through ebay and you pay him £4500 (without even seeing the car) and he will ship it to you anywhere within the UK......YEAH RIGHT!

[Paul1982]

I\'ll give him my girlfriend to pay him in kind just for the seats lol

Really dodgy if you ask me, I wouldn\'t buy a car unless I could see it and know its history. At 4.5K without knowing if its had a rebuild or not that still an okay price as some of the parts are worth a fair bit anyway.

Why dont people say they will buy it and pay him on collection, wonder what he would say
