 Bentley - Fancy a punt on this one? - Fullchat

Imagine the scene on a garage forecourt somewhere.

"Heyup Mister. Nice car. Mind if I take a few pictures on me mobile?"

Would you believe there are allegedly 6 bidders????

It's got satnav.... yes there's a standalone device stuck to the dash :-)

6 bidders and reserve not met.

Looks a bit of a shed, how much maintenance would a 112,000 miles Bentley need? Would have thought an S class would be a cheaper and better bet but I suppose there will be demand for it in the wedding car market.

What an ugly steering wheel.

Standard item. All airbag steering wheels of that era are ugly.

112,000 miles on a Bentley should be nothing. In fact, it would be just about run in.

S class a better bet? - for what rattle?
S classes are used as wedding cars from time to time, but brides prefer a Rolls or Bentley.
Most 2nd hand S classes are now found in the executive hire business, (posh taxis!)

Photos don't do it any favours. Why were they taken at night on a filling station forecourt? What is the "Warranty" which runs until November this year?

0 out of 10 for satnav integration!

One out of 10 for in car entertainment.

Unless my eyes deceive me, it's got a cassette player.

Suppose it might have a CD player as well.

I recall some had both.

The point I'm trying to make is that it's got 'hooky' written all over it. And the sellers rating/feedback is errr............. zero.

My thoughts exactly. Never mind what goodies it might or might not have - or whether the steering wheel's ugly -----The dodgy pics in a petrol station, the name of the seller hardly confidence inspiring, his feedback.....who in the World would bid on that?

>> who in the World would bid on that?

Probably bidders with equivalent (personality) profiles... Some eBay listings really are beyond belief but they all seem to sell.
