I know Shed has upped his budget a couple of times in recent memory, but these are usually available for less than £1k, no?

Oh my word, 165k French 2ltr diesel shed for £4k, wtf are they drinking hahahahahahahahaha

Agreed. Launched in the fairly awful mid to late 2000s era when Citroen forgot all about its quirky and eccentric USP and just produced bland, not particularly reliable euro boxes. Thankfully in more recent times they have got back to producing some more interesting and fairly good looking (IMO) stuff.

Ditto pretty much all of this for their French sister Peugeot.

I used to follow a dealer until recently on Facebook due to their prep effort. Over the last year however their pricing has been getting eye watering.

Its a white 335d saloon (which isnt even that practical) of the E90 era, yes its got amazingly low miles but 18k its up for.

Yes 18k for an old tech car with a diesel engine - not even an M3. Now its mint but I just don't get it. You could easily see yourself in a much newer one for that and I cant see its collectable in any shape or form.

That Saab is just nuts.
I'd love to hear their reasoning behind the price.

Checking the mot it looks like it might need a good few grand spend on it in a few months.Then again,what's a few grand when it's worth this much.
I think i'd reduce it to £1778 and hope someone would offer me £1500 before the mot runs out.

They must be on an extraordinary amount of drugs.

Or theres a kilo of coke in the glovebox....

It's drugs, or they just don't understand the concept of money judging by the other items they're selling.

It's worth looking at some of the other items he is selling too, all again with ridiculous prices, ill be amazed if he ever sells anything.

I know Harry’s Garage episode with Clarkson has boosted the values of advertised L322 Range Rover models in the last few months, with plenty chancing their arm, but is this really a £45,000 example of the L322?

The advert even mentions Chris Harris ownership as evidence of “provenance”.

Is it me or is this too expensive? I get the feeling I would be told “find another one” etc..

No idea of the values of those things, that does look like a beauty though

I was perusing for a Citroen C6 as i've long admired them and feel they are growing more and more suitable for a crater-strewn road network.

Stumbled across this example - can't quite believe this price for something with 174k miles, and a Category N insurance marker against it! Granted they're rare, but this version even has the 4 cylinder HDI!

It put dreams of bagging a 2.7/3.0HDI for less right out of my head...

Not as classy, but all Mark 1 C5s use Hydromatic suspension and are dirt cheap.

Haha, absolutely insane pricing - well over what most of the 2.7s go for, and the kind of money a 3.0 HDI would usually fetch...

Why is it all the pictures are terrible and full of amazon phoen tat as well

Looks like they ram raided Games Workshop for the other items.

And most of the items have been on sale for years. Have any of you checked the last mot ? If there ever was a list that screams "get rid of it for whatever you can get" this is it.

10 grand for a not particularly good looking or low mileage E46 330i touring.

Did you see the beginning of the description? Maybe it's only been added since yesterday; guessing they don't actually want to sell right now (unless for a crazy price)
