Hi Guys - I'm new to the forum and in the process of locating a 6 MPS :)

sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong section, but I was after some advice on a particular car that is on Pistonheads AND Ebay

the ebay item number is 270811498880

Thanks in advance

Col

thanks guys

to be honest, based on Pistonheads, Autotrader and the main dealers, I'd budgeted for £8500, so I'm a bit shocked they go for so little on ebay

here's one that went a few days ago (if I get the link thing right this time :lol: )

There's got to be something wrong with it or it's stolen! surely...3 Grand?! :loopy:

Why would you let it go for as little as that?....unless of course the winning bidder was a mate and he didn't actually sell it...

48,000 miles...same as the other one isn't it...coincidence?...or have I been watching too many 911 Conspiracy programmes recently?...

On a separate note didn't realise the 6 had electric memory seats...nice one...recently had a service done on my Mazdy and considering the bafoons only had to drive my car about 200 yards from the front of the stealers round the back they changed the seating position all over the shop...two weeks on and it still feels not quite right...grrr!

Only for the driver AND it is not heated like in Germany. We have to be content with a heavy electric sunroof instead. Who needs a sunroof with aircon?

Is it just me or does that look abit to good to be true? Full spec, low miles and immaculate? If it is what it says it's a steal!

Good luck with it and welcome to mps ownership :)

Probably just pulled out of sale

You're not watching the 911 things close enough. The 3k one is 55plate and the other is 56 plate ;)

Or could the CIA have used photoshop, changed the colour and amended the 5 into a 6?!!

Don't let them fool you!!...we're all living out predetermined lives and the powers that be are manipulating us all...seems even our cars aren't safe anymore :lol:

well guys, I spotted a better one on Pistonheads, so I only bid up to £5001 on the ebay MPS and lost... never mind :lol:

I was quite relieved actually because I'm going to look at a Titanium Grey one tomorrow after work with only 23,000 on the clock - looks like a beauty

complete with RX8 alloys :)
