Only one picture. Worth €1000? Low mileage, exceptional condition. What a great BX! One for the private museum..

That is a BEAUTY! I love the colour, the fact it's a clean Mk1 and LHD... Perfect. If only my numbers had come up tonight

Even my usually 'reluctant' wifey said 'Why don't you buy it and store it until you bugger off back to France"...

You think they'd have made more effort with the pictures with a car as stunning as that

Must be a right hound around the back

I once bought a Rover P6 off ebay with stratically placed pics. The listing had one pic of the front and one rear pic but the car was squeezed in between two walls so no side pics.. I should have known...

The car was a disgrace with the worst filling I have ever seen on the doors and front and rear wings. The seller wanted the money up front before collecting which I did I even paid for special delivery...

It also broke down 4 miles up the road and the seller was no help whatsoever..Me and baby had to get the train home and left the car in Portsmouth.

It's not just traders who are subject to telling absoloute lies but people who you would expect to be decent and honest rarely are..

Someone bought it for the buy-it-now price.. let's hope they were lucky.

Nasty experience that BCXM, never pay for a car without actually seeing it first & you would have to question anyone demanding the full amount upfront??? fair enought to pay a small deposit.

When i won the Gti off e-bay the seller didnt ask for any money, it was cod, best way cos then u can always walk away if its crap.

Better to get some negative feedback than hand over money for rubbish....we all learn at some time i'm afraid....

this was about 4 years ago and I was so excited in getting my hands on what looked like a decent P6...They were an old couple so I thought they could be trusted, after that I don't trust anyone whatsoever when it comes to cars...
