Postby iliov » February 5th, 2011, 6:47 pm

Currently looking for a BF mk2 turbo.

They were selling for like 23-25k late last year with 40-60km on them. Now that im ready to buy they are all 25-27k.

Pretty fkn annoying.

26.5k is 22k now?

Second hand car prices will go/have gone up as a result of the GFC, there was a lot of talk about it at the time. Less new cars = less second hand cars = people paying more for second hand cars.

Saw a really nice one sell a few months back. 07 turbo, lightning strike. Every single option except s/roof and only 35,000km. Sold for 22k. Still waiting for something like that to come up.

Look at your car. Now back to mine. Now back to yours. Now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine. But if you stopped buying dodgy cars and bought an ED, yours could be like mine. Look down. Back up. Where are you? ...You're on BoostedFalcon, reading the signature your signature could be like! Anything is possible when your car looks like my car... I'm on a computer.

This one is better if you can stretch the extra, it even has roof racks.
