Gentlemen place your bids!!!

Possibly yet another cheap LE about to be sold on Ebay?

Quite nice actually. Me likey likey

I forecast a £3,800 closing bid!

that looks a really good example. these cars should be worth more than this

Well thats one way around it i suppose!

i say 4400

Think it's someone on the forum as that was someones signature pic

Now that you say that coupedave, I do seem to recognise picture one in the ad which has a slight hue to it.

I wonder why he didn't post it up here in the for sale section??

It's nice though, my favourite LE colour.

That's the pick that i recognised too as it's quite distinctive

Is that the one that was talked about a lot on here a few months ago? ( number 197? )

yep i think so

£4135

this car has been discussed if i'm not mistaken
http://www.fiatcoupeclub.org/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=580852&fpart=1

I'd be suspicious...

Oh my God, the guy that bought Le 197 and found out it was clocked was called Jamest

He signed off his posts as James

The seller on ebay is called James and his surname begins with the letter T. Surely that isn't James T (Jamest)

Surley not!!

Jamest if yer out there please prove me wrong.

uhuh, back to 84k then

Aah, THAT'S why it's not posted for sale here then!

Gone for £3100...

I appears to have sold for £3,100.

That's some fast finger action TimC. You beat me to it

You never know, the winning bidder *might* receive an anonymous tipoff

This just gets weirder????

The winning bidder has only ever bought 5 other items on ebay, two of which (in 2005 & 2006) were bought from the seller of this LE

Maybe he was planted as a bidder-upper-buddy....

pure fluke.....just checked the ad with 15 seconds to go...

You're quite a detective mate!!

I'm not in the Police Service but I have had a lot of dealings in enforcement through my job

Cheers Thorpie, good doing business with you!

thats some feedback lol

Yes, this is my LE for sale, selling it to buy Jon's super coop!
I bid against myself instead of paying 30 quid for a silly reserve.
It's going for sale on Pistonheads tonight, you'll see it on there later, anyone who rings and asks I'll be honest to but it's just had 1000 pounds worth of work done at Powerfiat just to put your mind at ease!
James.

If it doesn't sell on Pistonheads I'll be breaking it in a couple of weeks if anyone's interested in any LE parts...
cheers,
James.

First dibs side skirts!

I'd consider putting something in the advert too regarding the mileage situation on it.

Was gonna say that too. Think you should be upfront in the ad about the mileage situation - its a little dishonest if you don't (IMO)

I couldn't care less about bidding against yourself to reduce your ebay fees, that's ebay's problem.

The bigger issue is that it appears that you bought a clocked car (stated 80k ish, actual 100k ish) from a trader and quite rightly you pursued action against him to get some cash back because he was fraudulent with regard to the actual mileage. Now you appear to be pulling the same trick, selling the car on, with the mileage back at around 80k. Please correct me if I have missed something here because it looks very bad
