Serious offers considered.

dunno mate, perhaps thats why its not selling. too be honest though no-one has even made a serious enquiry about it. this car will go to someone that views it, price is always negociable.

what do you think its worth then?

You'll have to patient mate! The car is well worth the money. Hold on and you'll get the price you want.
