Fairlady 2/2 at Auction today

[richiep]

And completely misidentifying it in their eBay ad. 1975 Datsun 260Z 2+2 rather than Nissan Fairlady Z 2/2. And thus burying a key identifier that makes it special in the U.K. marketplace. Amateurish and opportunistic.

Ditto - absolutely !

Does no-one use this site, ask for a bit of info, advice etc ?

 

[Rob Gaskin]

I've messaged them about the inaccuracy of their advert. I've seen the car.

 

[Rob Gaskin]

They have removed the mirrors.

They have removed the mirrors.

returned it to standard 260z spec

 

[richiep]

They have removed the mirrors.

Thereby messing up a key JDM feature - and removing a rather expensive pair of items. I hope they kept them, because if not, they threw away hundreds of pounds to slap some cheap ass door mirrors on.

Try messaging them?

My message bounced!

 

[Rob Gaskin]

I've resent my message and asked if he wants to sell the mirrors - I've not said what they are worth.

I also messaged about the mirrors...no response so far..!

Snap

Hands up who thinks they will hike the price of the car based on what they find out about the mirrors?

 

[Rob Gaskin]

I have had a polite response and yes perhaps he now realises he has a special car. I emailed via the website and he told me he had other messages.

If I had the space I would have been tempted - as with lots of cars at auction, perhaps just as well. I rented two garages once and filled them with a VW 411 and a 1200 Anglia.

You can keep the JDM mirrors!

You can buy some cheap JDM 'style' mirrors from Car Builder Solutions for under 20 quid.
