Even though there is some nice bits in the car..... I am not willing to pay that much....after all....it is actually a code 3 car...even though they somehow registered it as a normal 2nd hand....

I don't want the car falling apart on me with some good power or rust jumping out and have to spend another 20k to get it safe again.....BUT THAT IS ONLY MY OPINION.....
Jerome has put in some serious work .....and did a good job....but that is just too much and it seems his father has his own agenda with the car.....Jerome agreed to the sale.....but his father is making things difficalt.

I wish rs500 had posted his experiance earlier....then I would not have bothered making 40 odd calls to try and by the car and orginize the towing and stuff....

I have no idea what's going on, the car was for sale and all I have heard was that a few people called interested in the car. I am not in South Africa so I have not been dealing with anyone, my dad was told to sell the car for 45K which was what I thought was a fair price for the car, and no it is not a code 3 it was never logged as one. After getting little interest in the car I lowered the price to 35K as I do not care anymore. The car has been sold for that amount. Sorry for any problems but it's hard when your not in direct communication with people. As for the stupid comments about the S15 well I have no words for things like that.

Sorry again

i would let if go for 20k sorry i dont see anything bout 45k

Yep I posted that last price as I thought it just is not going to sell but someone did put a deposit on the car (which I did not know). I did not post all the prices on the forum. Poor info from me, I would of rather sold it to a forum member but I only checked the site today and saw all the messages.

I was so excited to buy this car.....I made so much arrangements and calls, had everything lined up, I asked your dad if I could not have your number to speak to you directly but he did not want to, after that he started the negotiaton and the number went up, wich I accepted....then out of the blue....the bad call....

Luckely I was not already there or on my way.....

In any case Jerome, hope aussie land is good for you, enjoy the lekke cars we will never see....
