'There will be NO TEST DRIVES - If the vehicle has any major mechanical fault proved at point of sale then you will be free to walk away'

Who in their right mind would buy a car like that without test driving it? What if it has mechanical fault that doesn't manifest itself until you start driving it, which you can't do until you've bought it? By then you've left the point of sale. I know people want to avoid timewasters and test pilots, but surely someone selling something so expensive has to accept that anyone spending tens of thousands of pounds can't be expected to do so without understanding exactly what they're spending it on.

he probably means no test drives without him in the drivers seat. both my lambo's were bought without actually driving them, and my last one was bought on pictures alone.
tbh i knew of the owner and we hunted the car down but i wouldn't let any purchaser drive it even if i was selling, a passenger ride would have to suffice.

He's giving zero information away about the car.

Miles, owners, history, servicing records all left to the imagination!

i woudlnt test drive a car unless i was serious about buying it, and i wouldnt buy a car unless i had driven it.

tbh anyone with reasonable common sense can tell a timewaster from a serious buyer, but if you stick a diablo on ebay you are bound to get 10 year olds trying to buy it with their paypal account.

if the car was straight why isn't the seller punting it through ph or the owners club or somewhere you are liable to find a serious diablo buyer???

same thing as a certain dealer who avoids bona fide enthusaist buyers like the plague because he knows we know the cars are bent.

If the car was straight he could sell it through carlo, i can't think of any reason to stick a diablo on ebay unless you have serious gambling debts and are getting your legs broken in a week.

I sold my Countach on eBay, so why not? Ultimately it's just another market place where you can advertise that your car is for sale.

was that a while ago lambochick?

I used to sell things on ebay quite a lot a couple of years ago, but recently my friend reported you just get bombarded with scams and timewasting bidders who never show and ebay still collect the listing money regardless.

I think my point was really that there are probably better sales venues than ebay for a straight diablo, unless you need a quick sale in which case the only way ebay really works quickly is setting a low or no reserve bidding auction.

About last October. Generated about three enquiries within the first few days of appearing, one of whom was the eventual buyer.
