WHY are the Scorpio's so cheap in England  In Romania a Ghia Scorpio with an average of 100 k miles costs about 6000 euros meaning at least 4k pounds  . Must say also i never even heard of an existing ultima ! Even a non-ghia is about 3k pounds 
PS: and the quality ...i bet you don't buy it with worn seats, worn steering wheel, all the bushes shot...etc 
PS2 : and forgot to mention, the Romanian govern applied a law in contradiction with the Europe laws, so if you bring a car from another country you have to pay a "first subscribing tax", an average value for a 2.3 Scorpio would be around 3.5K pounds !!! and a 2.9 will cost 4.7k pounds !!! Incredible isn't it ! @

Hang on a minute....it was Mr Floppy who said it was a £1500 start...so when I looked at it & it was £2000, I naturally assumed that the seller had just increased the start price......hic....hic....

That starting bid price is mad and the one on the screen he's trying to sell it at is dillusional!!
Some people really haven't got a clue have they.
Might offer £500 to take it off his hands!

No, I meant that as a start price 2 grand was way too high.
A more sensible £500 start price might have attracted a few offers.
The secret of E-Bay is not to overprice your items.
