my non running turbo (now on ebay too)
Turbo Mini Forums

right, it's definitely got to go soon, so the price is a bit more realistic this time

I have literally no money, so I can't try to get it running, and I've lost intrest in it anyway.

It owes me £550*, so I'll take that, no more, no less.

pics here -



Cheers for looking guys.

hopefully someone wants it

(*which doesn't include the price of the new v5, or the cost of tralier hire for the tow home, which would have bumped it up to £625)

oh, and I have the V5 now, which the previous owner did not sell the car with.

If this is a pukka turbo engine, then you'll have no trouble selling it via ebay I reckon, especially with that half-leather interior and wheels.

Set the reserve at £500, and STATE the reserve is set to £500. Also remind folks that snipers will probably try and bid with 5 seconds left, so make sure they enter their maximum bid...

Also state that there is this webforum called 'turbominis' that has more info than could be needed to get this finsihed, but the reason you're selling is because you've lost interest...


Something else that will help - take a close-up picture of the engine number, so it's obvious it is a turbo engine, not just a random 1275.

Good luck with the sale, and whatever you do next. :)

if only i had the cash mate as i would happily take it off your hands!!
im still working on it by the way mate.

it's yours if it's still around when you can afford it Josh

Dave, cheers, I'll do that tomorrow, I need to take some more pics anyway, so I'll get it out on the driveway, in the light, and get some pics all round.

Also thought I'd stand a bit mroe chance selling by dropping the price to something more realistic lol.

If you're honest with folks, they'll be honest with you. If you put a £500 reserve and state it - then they know immediately. The price that minis seem to go for now, there is a fair whack of money in that vehicle.

Don't forget to mention the clean headlining, the disc brakes, sportspack arches, etc....

does a standard mini disc set up come with 2 piston AP calipers?

yup

now on ebay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=120049475743

Reserve is £500.

Please let me know if there is anything else I could include, it was my first advert on eBay, and its a bit rubbish.

can off that fool with negative feedback for a start!!
