Another bargain!

Please someone tell me why it's worth £90K?

Lol... It’s not, but ask Audi tradition how it justifies overcharging Ur parts then encouraging quango trade supplier racketeering... It’s almost as if they’re trying to kill off ordinary people’s dreams of restoration.

I recognise the background in the photos. The car is at a body shop very close to where I work.
I don't know who owns the car, but the shop is run by a friend of my boss.

Listing was updated 24th Dec to say a deposit was taken.
Might swing past tomorrow & see if I can eyeball it.

If it was in pristine condition I would struggle to justify a £90K price tag, IMHO

Agreed, so why the silly £90k price for something that looks like a colander? Ok maybe not quite but has far too many holes present to justify price.

Sadly, reading the text, I think the idea of the mad price is to merely encourage people to “make an offer”. In the real world, everyone just thinks something like “knob” and moves on, or “just doesn’t get” the ironic use of a dotty price. Whatever it is, the corrosion on offer for an unspecified cost is exemplary...

This was £8995 when originally advertised, which is probably about right for the condition.
