TBH if it was me I would be a bit pi$$ed now seeing it on ebay with someone trying to profit off my missfortune.
Gotta earn a living though i guess :-k

Is that a sad story, or what?

Guys,

It is indeed Mark's car. The problem is, it's still under insurance investigation, and yet the Police compound where it was being kept have let it be sold for some strange reason.

I've spoken to Mark this morning, and he knew nothing about it bieng on eBay.

He's looking into what has happened now.

To say the least.

Anyway, at least we caught it in time. Well done Dan, if it hadn't been for you mate, it might have been sold and Mark wouldn't have had any recourse.

Cheers dude. :thumleft:

What is the story of this car?

I have seen the auction yesterday and phoned the seller...
He said, that he don´t now much about the car
and that he didn´t even have the keys... sounded a bit strange

Can somebody explain me how he can sell the car,
if the owner dont wants that?

I am very interrested in that car...

Cheers,
Heiko

You were too subtle though. The guys were tying it into being the one that the BMW driver saw go offroad lol. :P

Only messing anyway ;)
