Look who's joined the BAT 40th AE auction...




He wants his car back. Wonder how bad?

I love the guy that thinks you can get a decent replacement M96 for less than a 5-10k M97 (which is obviously going to be solid right? right???) with the implication that would be better than sending it back to Jake to have a look at.

I have to give him credit though, I haven't seen so much fail in so few words...

Tempting!

Especially since I just ship it to Jake and have months to figure out how to explain what happened.

Not sure if it was mentioned in the comments on BAT, but you may want to ask for some date stamped photos. On one of the interior photos, the mileage is 99043. In the one straight on of the dash the mileage is 101,272.

Not saying the seller is doing anything shady, but a lot can happen to a car in 1,230 miles.

I think this is just simply a case of, oh crap I need specific photos for the BAT listing. Let me see what I have on my phone. Just being lazy. I mean, look at how dirty the car is. He really doesn't care.
