Gee. I object to you making this comment especially as its not relevant to this specific conversation.
But you get guys like "AG" on the register who tell the owner that the car is worth £25k
What was discussed and in what context has been completely miss reported in that statement. I did not advise on a final cost, a selling figure nor did I value the car. I explained how I saw an excellent e32 B12 sitting should one of the few sold come up for sale in perfect condition. How the owner interprets this in connection to his or her car is not down to me.

Am I the only one who thinks Estoril does not suit this car.

And the colour coded shadow line is tragic.

He wants offers over £100k
He's given me the registration number
So I will update on the status of the car on the HPI register
He seems to think it's HPI clear
Apparently he's bought the car with no damage !!!
I've been chatting to Richard about this ad and can confirm that the vendor is the person who bought it and fixed it so is clearly telling porky pies .
His name is Adam and owns a bodyshop

I don't really like Estoril full stop so no you're not the only one.

Everybody will have their own opinions on the colour
I however think that B12 looks good in Estoril Blue

Looking at these pictures
The car isn't even worth 20k
Never mind overs over £100k
The chap who owns it Adam, Saj has an mot , repair centre at the moment
If the car wasn't properly put on a proper jig, it might not even be right

I think the warped suspension turret would be the most worrying for me.

When I enquired about the car on ebay I got a reply as follows - But it was minor damage a scrape on the passenger side and wheel damage. Not something that required rebuilding. :shock:

eBay vendor wrote:I didnt realise she was recorded untill now. The first few years I owned her it didnt come up on HPI.

But was only a minor scrape on passenger side. Insurance companies writes cars off because they recouperate more money selling the car as is and paying the difference.
He did know all about the damage the liar that he is
