The car in the gap behind the Continental Tyres VW van is a Citroen AMI

@qbrozen - I think CG also said it had been on their lot for 500+ days, so at this point, they should be ecstatic to get rid of it for what they paid, or less. What's a year and a half of floorplan on a $14k purchase?

Oh, if that’s true, then it can’t be the one that sold for $14k. That was just 2 weeks ago. Same miles (like 20 fewer at the time) and listed as “brown,” which I could see that being called.

This was in my feed... Anyone feeling brave? If memory serves, Hoovie had one of these and it needed some expensive/unobtanium HVAC part replaced + some other stuff, and he traded or sold it instead of fixing it.

They paid $14k for it. Dont know what they are thinking with that asking price. They should be ecstatic to get out of it for $17k. I’ll stick with my Maser for half the price, a bit quicker, and probably less troublesome, if you can believe that.

When I bought the M240, I insisted upon two keys/fobs. The salesdude agreed, said the prior owner had both. When I took delivery, one key. I followed up/persisted and was told that prior owner couldn't find his second key. Salesdude came through, had a second key created and mailed it to me.
I never get surveys; too bad I would have done well by him.

Congrats to all in the @stickguy expanding family!

Q has a point. I never had the money to buy all new cars so I had to satisfy my need with cheap cars that I liked when new. For 10% or so of the original MSRP I could pick up some interesting (to me) vehicles. The search for just the right combination of price, miles and condition made it all the more fun when you found the gems.

Amen to that!

Time flies around here … I’ve been talking with you jokers longer than I’ve been with my wife!
