Next.

oh dear.
Shiny on top, but underneath a bit rough I assume?

 

[Contigo]

Rough as arseholes no doubt, too good to be true!

Well frank it may run well (dont know as did not bother to ask them to even start it) but it is very tired, interior looks like its been recolonized but not by a pro and a long time ago. Body looks fair rust blisters in all the usual places. Looking a little sad for its self if it had half the miles on it them maybe worth a full respray and re upholstering but I know these cars and if I sink cash into another Non cup then it has to feel right this did not. Can't imagen they will ever shift it and wonder how/ why they came to have it.

 

[Pibbow]

Excuse the typos bloody iPad

 

[Parisien]

Its ok Peter.....has a tinge of annoyance to it all.....best to keep your hand in your pocket until the right one appears......

Going to look at , dare I say it an Alpina B3 later just to play with until I find the right Ghibli.

I know of a very VERY good Ghibli for sale - the last UK car. It's a GT (obviously) in dark green, with light tan interior. Mileage is okay (about 50k, from memory), and service history is spot on. But it's not a car for bargain hunters - it'll be priced as what it is - i.e. the last and best condition rhd ghibli gt. Stunning car.

The only downside for me (though this will be an upside for some others), is that it is an auto.

If anyone wants it, PM me.

Alpina B3? Very random! Good luck with that!

 

[dem maser]

Love the alpina

 

[dem maser]

Had a chat with Peter....hold onto the ghibli he could be interested

What a frightening ownership prospect! The E31 is a well-documented money pit carrying all sorts of wallet emptying faults. This version would also suffer from Alpina tax for many parts. Only a billionaire with a laissez-faire attitude towards the costs could really own such a car!
