Same seller has a 59 with more text, if it helps?  |
Yes, saw that, why not do the same for this? I'm sure he'll get lots of emails asking for pictures/details. |

Folks:
I just posted this ad in the classifieds: http://www.thesamba.com/vw/classifieds/detail.php?id=1952966
Any comments/suggestions on it would be genuinely appreciated - including suggestions on how to make the ad better, as well as on my price.
If you feel like being even more candid, harsh, etc. and don't want to do it publicly, feel free to send it to me on a PM. I am genuinely interested in hearing from you.
Thanks!

Mmmmm and "Gazzel" Brown too.  |
These two pictures were posted in a different thread on this site a couple weeks ago. I think the car is a flip.

New plate Speculator... seems like a bad idea
Also pricing is ridiculous |
I'd like to know how he picks them up from the DMV without putting them on a car, when I picked mine up the directions say to bring in the registration for the car to be put on and if you don't do it with in a certain amout of days anybody can take the plates.

I think thats because you have "real" old plates. These are the new breed. The whole idea behind this just kind of reeks. Its very much like the guys who try/tried to buy up all the .com names hoping they could take advantage. |
No, I also have the new legacy plates and you must put them on a car within a certain amount of days or they will become available for someone else, atleast that was what the form said when I got mine.

"Last photo is for illustration purposes only"
$25k huh? Would only make sense if this were a Mercedes Pagoda W113. Or if seller is suffering from major delusions.
