Relisted on Ebay

Selling off one (or bits :o) of your XM collection, or perhaps searching for those elusive headlight washer covers? This is the place to do it.

Hi the car is actually mine. Don't think its fair for guys on here to be slagging the my car off. The previous keeper bought it as a stop gap while waiting for a company car, and I bought it because I needed to do a 600mile round trip with a load of gear and didn't fancy putting the fuel in my ford lightning american pick up. I fancied one as I used to own one a few years ago and this was local so fit the bill. I've now done what I've bought it for so its back up for sale, not cos its crap. As for the price I want back what I paid for it, so rather than stick it on for 550 and someone trying to knock me down the price is higher but room to negotiate.

Thanks

Richard

Hi Richard

I dont think anyone is intentionaly saying the car is 'crap' just that its strange that its been hanging about on ebay for so long it kind of puts people off sometimes.
We wish you all the best with the sale though.

Good luck with the sale.

Hi Richard,

Pretty much echoing Dean's comments, no offence implied, but the same car popping up all the time on e-bay does make people think the worse.

However, it is good that you have come on here, and you can set the record straight and put an end to our speculations.

I quite like your XM, its much the same as my daily user. I run a Mauritious blue VSX 2.1 Auto, a great combination.

Good luck with the sale.

Its a shame thats not sold, taxed and tested, its an awful lot of car for little money.

Leather looks nice too.

Hi Richard

I've had that on ebay, not with cars I'm pleased to say but with other things. In future I am going to make a stipulation that the buyer makes contact within 24 hours or I will relist. Threatening them is a waste of time.
