About a grand more than WBAC would give (stick the reg in and see what comes back...also might be worth trying motorway), plus a chunk on top in buyers fees

Got the Reg. GV66 GXA

WBAC have said £17,000 so plus a grand, plus fees. So probably about £19500 out the door???

Grade 1 and is still has dents, chips, scratches and one through the paint on the rear quarter?

I can't work out what the 5th picture and warning about the interior is? Is something wrong with the sat nav screen?

Strange that the car was put through an MOT a few months ago and then end up at an auction house so soon? It wasn't due the first MOT until December.

I think the pic of the screen is just showing it’s got the big screen and all service parts are ok.
I thought strange about the mot as well. Maybe it was sold and buyer wanted 12 months mot. Mercedes put mot on my last car with 5 months left.

Being a grade one I guess the marks would be small.

I did see that but it’s £250 if you win the car or not. The only reason I am going for this is because it’s identical to one I might buy, so i might buy this instead.

I can see that could get very expensive very quickly.
Might be worth waiting a couple of months before buying a convertible.

It is understandable that a new owner would want 12 months MOT. It is a bit usual to only have quite an expensive car for only months and for it to end up at the auction house.

The picture of the sat nav is an interior condition flaw. It's point number 5 listed in the things that are wrong.
