Have we had this one yet? £5.5K for a 1.6 Primera?

OK, it's low mileage, but it should be, it hasn't been driven for 10 years at least. What the hell would you do with it if you bought it? It's not even the 'desirable' model of the range.
And reading 'yes, just 5400 miles!!!!!!' in the ad that many times made me want to poke my own eyes out.
Beautiful wheel trims. You'd think they'd get the odometer in focus.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-Primera-LSX-/1918...

How many miles has it done? Didn't quite catch that after reading the add. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-Primera-LSX-/1918...

A 3.5 with more Alpina badges than a real one, no MOT,a non-functioning passenger door and clearly a rather hard 89k miles.
Bidding starts at £3260 with no reserve. Well it would do were anyone mad enough.

I'd stop after the wheels, it suits it very well.

I know, a 7 year old Citroen

The mismatched cheapo tyres (Wanli/Federal/Dunlop) are all a bit of a warning sign on a car like that as well.
I love it when people tell you how much the 'cherished' plate is 'worth'. It is very simple to put it on retention and sell it yet they never do......
The guy is deluded.

Shame the interior doesn't look as well preserved as the exterior, especially for only 89k...

The car is a breaker due to gearbox spec and engine it's not as dear as you might think... Try and source a manual box for one of these!

Or it might be a decent car that just needs a few bit sorting.To be honest from the pictures it hasn't got the usual E39 rust which is a bonus and if the Alpina Alloys and a few other bits are genuine they could be sold for a few quid.
It's a bit over priced but you'd need to see it first and get it tested to see the failure sheet.
Maybe £20000 for an old fiesta is normal these days, but to me it is still nuts.
