was following the recent sale of a P1 on ebay just out of interest to see what it went for, and some lucky bugger got a 2001 X, 50k for £14500!! i take it this is a good price?!
seller is going overseas and set the reserve low, if the car and sale turns out to be genuine this seems a snip to me, i can't believe they're this cheap even private at a knockdown price.

anyone on here got it?

Isnt it better to price it v.resonable and have the pick of 10 people ho are banging ya door down to buy it or put it at 3/4k more and have it sit on ya drive for weeks and weeks while you post 50 times on here because it has gone to page 6 within an hour as it is to expensive.

The car is only worth what people want to pay not what you want for it!!

At that milage you might argue it's a reasonable price? Also, who's to say there isn't something wrong with the car? That's the thing about buying cars off Ebay - do you have the opportunity to reject the car if you find something out about it that you don't like?

for the sake of negative feedback, i'd turn down a 14 grand car if it wasn't what i was after wouldn't you?
didn't really think 50k was anywhere near a mileage to worry about, but yeah that could be whats brought the price down.
but bloody hell, what a car for 14 and a half grand! theres a MY00 turbo at my local garage for 12 grand, bit of a no brainer if you're in the market for a scoob, i'd sell some vital organs to have this car
