Someone is going to get a good deal though.

Edit: Oh wait. Just realised this is the same car that has been for sale since I purchased my car back in March.

He wanted around 17K for it when I was looking.

Good god thats cheap, but whats with the Hartge Perfomance Kit, that he then wont talk about ?

I dont see any M5 kit on it either...perhaps the 17 unanswered questions are pointing out a couple of the errors.

My last bid was $7800

the biddings taken off all of a sudden.....like always!

Currently at $9200

[OLLIE 26]

and the last minute bidding battle is on

[hybrid 1039]

I find it very strange people are willing to part with 10k for something they haven't seen or got a PPI on.

Its a stock 540i pre-Vanos and pre facelift with HM2 wheels on it and no motorsport options. Am I missing something ? it looks like a normal price for one of these.

ARGHHH im getting pissed off with the guy named "mahia".....He keeps waiting till the last 5 seconds of auction and then places a bid !!!!

I couldnt help thinking there was something a bit suss about this one.

Couldnt put my finger on it tho.

[Driftit 1945]

Haha some people get so carried away in the last min bidding wars. It went from a good price. To prob what it was worth. Yet both those bidders have prob not seen the car. 10K blind buy. Not smart.

It seems like quite a good buy for $10k. Surely those wheels are worth over $1k?

If you haven't seen the car, you really do always have an out if you can argue the car is not as described.

[1rotty 40]

I buy blind all the time-but i always talk to the sellers at length & do as much history checking as possible-previous owners etc

Plus I never pay going rates.

I had no interest in this one but the seller seemed very evasive to me.

And most important I dont pay until I pick the car up.It hasnt happened yet but I would walk if the car wasnt up to par.
