Strange one alright.Defo looked good value at £12105.As an aside I have been following a BMW M Sport 535d touring on the bay for the last 3 wks or so.Appears to exceed reserve each time and sold, only to re-appear couple of days later on auction site with same vendor. Fact that the trader/vendor refuses to disclose reg no to me to enable HPI and service record maybe says it all! Just a thought.

Isn't this a simple case of one of his mates bidding it up because it hasn't fetched enough ?
Not that I'm an advocate of it but we all know it happens and that dies look very clean for 12k

What's with the 12k? That was last auction.

It says it's a 'no reserve auction' I was planning to put in a bid for 99p but the trouble is I already have two Griffs......

Calm down Pete....
Clearly 12k wasn't enough last time...12k was actually my bid !
I mean it's very clean for 12k so matey outbid me himself so I didn't get it and he could try again.
What the odds if the price doesn't make it again it'll get outbid at the end and re advertised.
No reserve me ass...

I think it looks a very nice car and well worth bidding.

FleaBay is supposed to have some rules so if there is no reserve then there is no reserve so he is pcensoredg around and deserves to be reported. I'm not some evangelical puritan but I do use FleaBay quite a lot and I expect it to work properly.

Let's see what happens. I still think it's worth a bid. Pete
