I sold my V35 2003 70th Anv Ed last year for 17,000

140,000+km

Sold it through gumtree

Unbelievable price what you achieved considering the kms and the beige interior... I'll give Gumtree a shot.

PS: How many scammers contacted you on Gumtree?

Edited by Sikahalv

I had two people contact me.

One kid who was dreaming of buying one and was just nosey.

Other came over and said he wanted it as soon as his insurance money cleared. His car got written off.

What do scammers do?

Last scammer sent me a message via a random number asking ridiculous questions I had already answered in my advertisement such as "whats' color is ur vehicle and how long rego it currently has?" then requesting I email them directly at gregstevens1973@gmail.com as they're a missionary from Nigeria who's currently working abroad on an oil rig and can't make it to Adelaide to view my car -- but -- have a buying agent on standby waiting to pick my car up and then asking "would you accept $19700" for my V35 Skyline that I've just reduced to $17400 via a "no hassels free, western union secur safe payment system" of which they'll help me set up, because they're Good Guy Greg, and care about my personal well being.

    • 15000? ish? Something like that anyway. It wasn;t so much a wear as a tear that then spread. Might have lasted a lot longer if not bothered by just one incident, whatever it was. I took a punt. They are really comfortable and do a good job of holding. My daughter HATED it when I first put them in, and probably still does now. She has sensory issues and hates the way they are all up your business. I'm 197cm and 95kg. Not fat or particularly wide, and the XL size seat is the rigth fit. If I was any fatter it would start to get too snug. Any skinnier and you'd possibly want the smaller width.
    • Mrs rs focus came factory with recaro cs  sportsters in it and they a pain in the ass to get in and out of with the really high bolsters, once you were in them they were one of the most comfortable seats I have ever sat in
    • The NA 2.5 has very little torque. You won't feel much. Those trannies are also a million years old now and it could well be f**ked. First generation electronically controlled autos will often refuse to kick down, ete, etc, depending on what's wrong with them.
    • Yes, but no but yes but no. Those "it's fine up to 500HP" rules and everything else like it were all determined back when the cars were 10 years old. As they are now 30 years old.....what do you reckon the chances of something shitting the bed are? I'd say they are much higher now than they used to be. You might be lucky. You might be unlucky. Spin the wheel and find out. Yeah, nah. It's actually exactly the opposite. Making boost early and having heaps of torque able to be generated right in the middle of the rev range will do more to damage an engine than having to rev it high to make the power. Think about the load on the conrods, bearings, etc, to make 400HP at 4000 rpm, vs 400 HP at 6500 rpm. So someone has already "let the Nissan out" which is how we describe the increased chance of a fiddled with engine to have had something done wrongly. Many more engines that have been opened die than stock ones do - even if you into consideration how they are treated wrt power levels and the like. Again, not saying that yours will definitely have been put back together by a moron. But the possibility does exist. It's still a lottery. Spin the wheel. What weakspots?
    • Sell it and buy a turbo version will make it a lot faster
