That was my guess too!

Always popping up with the goods.

ahh it's great to have hoarders

It's a UK-only auction, so it might turn out to be a bargain!

I hoped it was you who had outbid me though

Don't get those bids in too early, think about what the part is worth to you, and get a bid in as late as possible. Otherwise you'll just get sniped by someone else in the closing seconds of the auction ...

I did a deal with Aymat once, we were both interested in the same part and spoke about what we were going to bid. Aymat's was higher, so I held back. Of course that system only works on trust

Good advice there Tom, when you put in early bids it just gives other people longer to talk themselves into paying more. I never start to bid until the last 2 mins, I have 2 windows open and then put my maximum bid on, then wait for the last 20 seconds and hit bid now...guess you could call me a sniper?

It's the only way to bid TBH, I never understand why some people put bid after bid in, just to "stay on top" while the auction is running. Sometimes I think they're the sellers' mates, bumping up the price

I agree it seems to happen all the time.

Hi all.

Good luck to the bloke who did. I hope he is on here and we will se a pic.
Cheers Mark.

good price, isn't it? (no it isn't me )

Volvo limo, not on ebay. I drove it today. It's awesome. It's got glitter paint and pneumatic suspension. I'm sold. £2000

Didn't you just buy the 240? If not do it!

yeah, he wanted me to buy this but hell I've not got £2000! Can I just express how awesome the 240 is though? I think it's possibly the nicest car I've ever driven.
