Same Lexus Different Planet

Spotted this whilst browsing,no service history,looks like a dealer in disguise with start price (£9895.00) and given past sales and feedback.

Like the way the price is calculated,take a standard 98 LS400 average value,add the cost of LPG conversion,add the cost of servicing/repairs = start price!

Yours has been looked after with service history Chris and therefore well worth the asking price plus being a Gold member of the LOC adds thousands to the value!

I was watching this on eBay and the price was £1895, which I thought was reasonable. In fact, I had it lined up for my dad.

Then between Saturday and Sunday, the price changed from £1895 to £9895. I even messaged the bloke to say what's happened to the price, is something wrong? He said no, the price is £9895. I was going to go on and say that'll never sale, but I thought, good luck mate, if you can get it, why not?

It doesn't say in the description it's GOLD PLATED! lol

Oh goodie

Mine must be worth five grand, albeit my oil filter didn't cost £170! I'm open to offers above 5k mind.

sounds like he has someone lined up, that way if it doesn't sell he still has his ad so he can put the price back to what it was

Its on Autotrader for £2195. I'm sure it started the same on eBay and been changed.The grammar leaves you in no doubt

Funny you should say that I was looking at it on eBay when the price went up I sent him a question asking if it was now gold plated.

[steve2006]

If you read and decipher the description it says it's starting price is the same as the LPG conversion i.e £1700.00

So it's a Cat C ( category C write-off is one where the cost to repair was more than the value of the car ), he's selling it because he's going abroad. Then says if it doesn't reach his expectations he'll keep it. Stand clear I'd say.
