Post by: Vegantune on Saturday,May 13, 2023, 09:54:30 AM

Back again, but not any better: Still the same confused multi-car pile-up, missing lots of key parts. Does includes lifetime supply of bungee cord.  :deadhorse:

He isn't moving off that $14,950 price. I guess he's in no hurry to sell or he doesn't mind disappointment.

Thought maybe it got cheaper, and sold. But no. Still same mess, still same price.

Can't believe the photos with severely rusted cylinder bores and the crank out of engine.
What a basket case!

 :FUNNY:
  maybe 1300.
  no windscreen or pistons, needs paint, carpeting, linkage, facia, crashpad, gauges, fuel tank etc....
  seller is just trying to re-coup his mistakes.

If at first you don't succeed...
The ad says "best offer accepted". I wonder what it was. Also, I never noticed before, but the seller only has an 83.3% rating on ebay, which is a bit sketchy on its own. Either way, I hope the buyer scored a good deal, and is happy with his new project.

I hope buyer understood what they were getting....and not getting. Sort of hate for someone with dreams of completing a roadworthy Europa finds out this is less than they realized, and get turned off and never finish - feeling like they wasted money.
