Was this a bargain?

Only if you like that sort of thing

4.2 l, petrol

not really !

Zero bids.... didnt sell or sold out of ebay.

Ceratinly doubt it went for £4500

got to be one of the worst cars i've ever driven!

Horrible car. But it's cheap and will make some one who wants to feel like they own the road very special.

mpgs 15s at guess,

you can get a lot of car/£ in this arena

Would have been a bargain at £3500, pretty much average at £4500.

the resale values are falling off a cliff at the mo and many garages/ dealers will not touch them incase the get stuck with them.

so a bargin... only if you want to keep it forever.

ditch

they are riddled with problems a chap i work with has one. its been serviced to the letter from day one and has still spent more time in the garage than on the road. its currently in the garage for a knackered injector and cracked maniflod. he plans to sell it as soon as its fixed.

At least the wife has good taste and a sensible mind, she wants a BMW X5.

he's also selling a ferrari! Not the one i bought in the end but it made it onto the shortlist as an interesting extra. Auto and big petrol so not what i wanted really.

As i understand it, a petrol ML is pretty much untouchable - not good untouchable, bad untouchable.

Bit too much for me, just as a donor engine

Wouldnt touch it otherwise.
