Max9650 Posted July 18, 2013 Share Posted July 18, 2013 This starlet has been for sale so many times recently, I first saw it on TGTT about a year ago up for 2800 ish and took about 7-8months to sell. a mate of mine bought it who sold it 3months later as it was too expensive to run, he sold it to a trader who also had it up for sale for 2800 ish, and it sold around a month ago, and now its up for 1500! Weird or just a bargain? Its forged and is too cheap anyone shed some light as I don't want a member buying It and finding out its a dog ? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-Starlet-GT-Turbo-HUGE-Spec-Good-Condition-Tax-Mot-QUICK-SALE-/290948206516?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item43bddd4fb4http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Toyota-Starlet-GT-Turbo-HUGE-Spec-Good-Condition-Tax-Mot-QUICK-SALE-/290948206516?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item43bddd4fb4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ep'd Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Looks nice just buy it. For 1500 what could possibly be wrong that cannot be rectified? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 It has been up for sale quite a few times.Worst case, engine and turbo are fucked and youve paid 1.5k for a rolling shell. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Weyro Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Id imagine someone whos bought it before has removed the forged engine and put in a stock one Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ep'd Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Bargains can exist! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The_Notorious_C_A_T Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 (edited) Could always be a genuine bargain, but with how fast it's moving hands and how long it took to sell, alarms bells would be ringing to me. Edited July 19, 2013 by The_Notorious_C_A_T Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kyle_R Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 It does look smart but I can't help the fact it wouldn't sell when a forum member owned it now its 1500 well actually it's 2000 now :/ maybe it will be 2350 tomorrow and 36000 by Monday Quote Link to post Share on other sites
