What's wrong with this?

Seems cheap to me, surely it hasn't lost THAT much value?

Would you buy a car with "eco tec" written on the engine cover?

Yes, I had a 1.6 eco-tec Astra which I bought tax free years ago while serving in Germany, was fine TBH.

It's a 3 litre TDi, surely you could have it remapped or something? I can't believe that engine would suck, but am happy to be corrected

A 1 has been missed off the front of the price or it's a scam.

They might have half the intelligence of men but I doubt even a woman would make such an error of judgement. If anything, they always hideously over value their cars.

Probably but that wouldn't change anything for me. I imagine you're getting my opinionated logic now.

Was there any need for that? :rolleyes:

I am far too old to race here to tell people about a possible scam, it was a genuine question. I have little idea about the value of cars, especially in the current climate, hence asking for the opinion of others.

I believe that an earlier poster was probably right, it must be a price typo. Perhaps you may be able to buy such a car for this money soon if the economy continues to go the way it has! Never mind
