greenday-rulz21 6 Report post Posted May 27, 2010 After the trade me discussion I looked at sella to see how crap it was compared and I stumbled across this E34 M5. http://www.sella.co.nz/motoring/cars/bmw/5pj75z/ Kinda a bit astonished at the reserve met, especially considering its only reached $2500 with only one bidder. Could be a serious bargain. Just goes to show how much of the market trade me reaches. I would hate to see an M5 go for that and I hope for the sellers sake it reaches a decent price. Looks like ashmill's old M5? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mark 178 Report post Posted May 27, 2010 He's probably accidentally put the reserve at $2500, instead of $12,500. Bet it gets pulled before the end of the auction. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
greenday-rulz21 6 Report post Posted May 27, 2010 Yea, most likely the sellers mistake. But that bid has been there for the last 10 days... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Simon* Report post Posted May 27, 2010 That's our old friend St**t - will bet money on this car not changing hands for anything remotely near that price or auction being withdrawn. Has same photos as back on trademe - the little pplate gives it away Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eagle 1662 Report post Posted May 27, 2010 Was wondering why it was ludicrously priced. It does look like that black M5 that sold awhile ago like like someone mentioned, not sure if it is or not but you wouldn't take that tossers word for it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CamB 48 Report post Posted November 9, 2010 (edited) Thread dig - I see the car is on Trademe again. The upcoming 20 year rule explains the dodgy registration (as an ATV) noted above. http://www.trademe.co.nz/a.aspx?id=330850360 You'd be totally mad to buy the car for anything other than racing purposes, IMHO.
