Zitat

The green CSi on ebay was listed at least 3 times with the listing having been withdraw at the last moment due to various excuses, but peresumably because the bidding price was low.

I was curious about the car and asked the seller many questions, which he did not respond to. But, it did not strike me as a very genuine car. The engine looked fine, but too many details on the car had been messed with and replacing the whole exhaust with a stainless one for £900 doesn't seem like it could have been a very good one, as most are a lot more than this. Also, the wheels looked ridiculous (at least to me).

By not listing proper detailed photos (rather than ones taken from a mile away) and placing a scant desciption, mainly of the satnav, the seller possibly did not do the car justice.

I think this seller was looking for around £17k, but for that money there were two very genuine CSi on Autotrader recently and with far fewer owners. One was from a serious collector and in almost concourse condition.

The owner of CSi chassis #CC88163 and I recently had a negative email exchange. There are obviously incorrect facts being cited about the car and its provenance....and the owner doesn't care. Also, he is impolite and rude.

If you're interested in this car, then I would recommend that one treads carefully. I think Arne's summary says it best.

Cheers,
