Re: Another bargain!
Ooh they can fetch good money then, maybe it's worth a bit as a rolling chassis to someone?

I suspect rolling is all it'll ever do now.

An allegro that pretends to be a jag for £3000, or a proper jag for £500.

Re: Another bargain!
Complete with mouldy upholstery and holes in the floor
I think at that price, and the cheap insurance, I'd buy that for the experience but I suspect the holes in the floor will be the tip of the iceberg...

JACKPOT!
An 11-plate 406
stored, never registered, and with 'showroom' mileage.......

Sadly it's sold now (approx £5K in 2012).

Re: Another bargain!
Interesting! Nice find Welly, As Jon says, it's a shame there's only the 2 pictures left so we can't drool over it too much
Umm, I wonder what terms I could use for a saved search for similar cars

Not really a baragain but a very nice c5:

Would anyone be put off by that mileage, other than the fact its a bit high the car looks immaculate, its also a very nice looking car with the dark red paintwork and cream interior.

Re: Another bargain!
It's probably not that cheap - ex-lease company cars are frequently sold for more or less the final 'balloon payment' at least within the original organisation.
£4 - 5k isn't unusual for a 4-year old / 100k car.
144k wouldn't be too much of a worry to a low mileage driver looking for a bargain, but the pictures of the display are confusing - has someone really been trying to sell this for over a year?
