I very rarely post here myself but I do lurk a fair bit and I have noticed all I ever see from your account is pessimism and doubt. You're very opinionated on how others may be spending their money on these cars and only seem to get involved in debates about high valued sales - always negative. I'll grant you that this one seems overpriced but I'd believe Jim if he's spoken to the seller. Either way, what does it really matter whether it's sold or not yet?

I just have to ask - What do you get from these posts that you make? I'm genuinely intrigued.

Well said Peage.?

Sorry am I missing something here? By "Jim" I presume you are referring to the member jimmer, whose post states that the seller had contacted because there was something wrong with the car that was present before the seller had collected it. Yet the eBay listing makes no mention of this, and, in fact states "Just had a cambelt service at Nissan Drives beautifully".

Am I the only one who is seeing this? If this "buyer" actually exists then I feel sorry for them.

Hi Alex,I literally have nothing to gain by inventing a story of a supposed sale or defect,Sales companies leave adverts up for many reasons,The trader asked me if i knew of any other tidy cars,And also mentioned somebody had contacted him via Ebay with a  low mileage 13k UK model that once belonged to the Sultan of Brunei,I know who that is and so do many on here so without his advert would he have had that message and potential of a trade ?  Sales sites are littered with stuff " not for sale" it is common  these days with listings being so cheap and nobody wants to look like they have nothing going on in business do they ?.The vendor in his experience thought the car was fine.He told me it was sold,I can  only relay what he has told me after all.

I never said or suggested that you invented the details of the sale or the defect. Actually, I was taking what you had said as fact.

Just seems odd that a supposed used car dealer wouldn't know that when dealing with cars that are 30 years old if you leave them standing something might go wrong.
