michel Posted 20June, 2016 Report Share Posted 20June, 2016 (edited) Nothing to see here gents, and certainly no cornflour used in this stew.Selling a dream and been sold a dream. Gunter was the name of the first and current seller. No flip. Just pushing the market for a 'better' price. so now it's a reverse auction Edited 20June, 2016 by michel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hugh Posted 20June, 2016 Report Share Posted 20June, 2016 Will be interesting to see what it actually sells for, I'm assuming there maybe a mini auction happening? Wow. I was expecting an auction of sorts but didn't expect it to be pulled & then re-listed on 2 separate sites. Not that I was 'in' anyway but at 150k+ I'll see myself well and truly out. Still watching & waiting with interest.......................... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michel Posted 20June, 2016 Report Share Posted 20June, 2016 a Carrera with a bonnet that had some rust on the front edge as one of the major issues, is then but a trivial affair. a pre galv shell and a pre galv targa that may have accident repair and also some evidence of yellow paint on the body...but it's a Carrera guys . Right? ! Sell the dream. Gunter is/was rightly in a dilemma and thinks (and advised by some who may frequent here) the best way to sell the car to maximise return to his family Is pre ad on gumtree and an eBay auction to follow. Gunter is not concerned around making us happy.Sure the last week for a few might give rise to a grumble - so what. supply demand. $260k for an engine and some chassis numbers. Rust for freedidn't you just buy a ... BlitzKonig and turboT 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michel Posted 20June, 2016 Report Share Posted 20June, 2016 Who knows , there's also the no books issue, who cares, but the ' investor' . For the person who likes forensics and the hunt, could be all quite stimulating...It'd be great to see this as is with a brace of bonnet lights parked at Bunnings, and where you strike up a friendly chat with the owner over a sausage sanger... unlikely.

JLD Posted 20June, 2016 Report Share Posted 20June, 2016 I think it's a great car; the colour, the engine (with handwritten rebuild receipt), even that it's a targa. I just don't see the value at $150-260,000! But I guess I know not as much as a lot of you so it's a moot point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turboT Posted 20June, 2016 Report Share Posted 20June, 2016 i assume the alleged "no compliance plate" mentioned elsewhere will be cleared up on the gumtree and ebay adds by a photo of it present or missing? Isn't Harndorf a rouge state of Germany anyway? Probably doesn't need compliance Gunter wouldn't be that far removed from the fatherland with a name like that. michel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

symsy Posted 20June, 2016 Report Share Posted 20June, 2016 Sable Chocolate LiqueurA beautiful, natural wine liqueur. The base is Ruby Tawny into which we have steeped dark German chocolate, cinnamon clove spices and three year old brandy. A soft, smooth wine to accompany your coffee or to add pleasure to moments of relaxation. Sip it through a topping of cream if you prefer. In warm weather, try serving chilled. An experience of elegance and lingering pleasure!With a lime targa twist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

9er Posted 20June, 2016 Report Share Posted 20June, 2016 Yes, it must be broken, my car has been on there for 5 days and has not sold.OK apologies to Carsales it is not broken, but it did take nearly a week to sell my car.My main complaint would be the 27 email enquiries that it generated when I asked for telephone to be the first point of contact, so perhaps if I had replied to any of those emails it may have sold sooner (doubtful) SimonN 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
