Can I flog my Alfa Spider here?

[bobob]

Just pull the thread if Its not allowed :)

I've decided that one of the toys has got to go... and it can't be the monster :mand:

It does need some TLC but its a fab classic spider... I've put it on flea bay.... I forgot to put a reserve on it so am bricking it a little as it cost me an arm and a leg to drive it back from Italy earlier this year and i've spent a grand on it since.... anyway, let me know if you are interested ok? Its currently in Cambridge as I will be working here for another four weeks but I drive back to Bromley at the weekends.

you could edit your e bay listing to say it is for sale else where and you reserve the right to remove it. then if it doesnt fetch anywhere near what you need withdraw it 12 hours before auction ends.

Good tinkin batman, can't believe I forgot to put a bleedin reserve on it..... I'm suffering from jetlag, I flew back from italy this mornin' you see :mand:

[bobob]

wooohoooo ts gone up to £1100....... :cry: wahhhh

c'mon, you know you want it :) mr franco from franco's italy has one !!!!! (bbc2 ;))

OOh, that's a beaut! If I didn't have my MX5.....

Oh, and Rain Man had a Boat tail in his youth... ;)

[sidrat]

how much are you expecting?

[bobob]

Cheers spacemonkey :) I really really love her and she turns a lot of heads when out and about!

Not sure sidrat...... one in top condition sold for 5100 a while ago but as it has the engine problem and a few niggly other bits n bobs, i was hoping for 3k maybe? i doubt very very much it would cost a grand to make perfect and then you have yourself a cheap spider.......

anyway..... we'll have to wait and see what happens, if I don't think its going to make enough I will have to pull it from the auction I guess???? :(

life sucks.... why can't we keep everything we buy :mand:

[sidrat]

its a nice car and i have bid on fleabay, probably too expensive for me, but if you are stuck and will accept a silly offer............

[bobob]

you never know sidrat ;)

need a new tyre for me monnie so......... who knows!

I wonder if I can put a picture here of it?.... lets 'ave a go...

[bobob]

how do you get it to show as a picture? not as a file link? any ideas? :scratch:

[bobob]

lets see if this works.... :mand:

[bobob]

Its a real shame the steering wheel is on the wrong side, would be very interested otherwise......:cry:

[bobob]

ahhh kato! You see thats where you are wrong my young padowan learner :) Its on the right side of the car!! Its Italian, its where it should be ;)

But in all seriousness, it feels much much more comfortable driving with the stick in my right hand (ooer missus') than it does in the left. Its also quite narrow so it doesnt make much difference with what you see ahead really..... honest guv'nor :mand:

Everyone stares at it (or devilishly handsome me.... cough) its really fun.... i'm just poor :(

[bobob]

its still there :) c'mon..... buy it, you know you want it ;)

will accept sensible offers too.....

[bobob]

bumpety bump bump...... ;)

I can't let it go for 1500.... I'd rather hang myself... well... I might!?!?!

Any offers over 2500 considered ... c'mon... get yer wallets oot! :mand:

[bobob]

RIGHT THEN!! Thats it..... theres less than 12 hours to go and I am about to get my granny out of the closet to sell to make up the difference..... its yer last chance folks..... it ends 12.30 today, which means you can all bid in your lunch breaks :)
