It's not a Porsche, but...

Post by KS »

...it might as well be. This Karmann Ghia belongs to a good friend (and fellow DKP club member) of mine and the advert is a lesson in how to sell your car on BAT. Check the photos - and then check the videos (especially the driving one). Gorgeous car in every respect. Wish I had the money to buy it...

It'll be interesting as there are two bidders going head to head. It ought to make $50k+, and should be $60K, but hard to say in the current market - also relatively few on BAT fully understand cars like this. The one guy's comments about the engine is so out of date, for example.

It's sold for $47,100 (roughly £33,500) and is coming to the UK. Somebody got a bargain...Sadly not me.

You lucky, lucky boy! I had an e-mail from Dustin this morning telling me that 'Monty the dog' had won! :lol:

You won't be disappointed...
