And the dreamer of the year award goes to

[Wack]

It’s been a tough year with much to choose from but I think £5995 for a 17 year old Renault master with no mot that needs an engine and he’s keeping some of the interior is the winner

he must be a politician as he’s selling it really well , it’s going to be a cracking reliable motor but I suppose that depends on whether you put a cracking reliable engine in it

everything is there ( apart from the bits he’s keeping) but none of it works

bmw seats that turn into a double bed with a big lump of plywood , you can expect a comfortable nights sleep on that

there has been some accident damage causing the side door to fall off but secured for transport so that’s good

a bit of rust but lets face it you’re not going anywhere in it so not really a problem

link at the bottom, no fighting , form an orderly queue

a special mention goes for the tidiness of the interior in preparation for the photographs

I had to check the calendar then to see it wasn't April Fools Day!

 

[Richard n Ann]

Fascinating

Well it's ready for lockdown... I like it

 

[MisterB]

i wonder how much tread is on the spare wheel on the roof, if its above the legal limit, then i might be tempted to offer a fiver for the van BUT only if it was delivered and the spare wheel came with it .....

and in line with other users on here, it would be at £1 per month

You know though some people buy these sort of things, if it was advertised at 100 quid no one would consider it but put it up at some daft price, there will be someone who thinks it's worth it

Bloody hell surely not, you may as well bag up some dog shit and put it on eBay.

 

[Ukeman]

He has......it’s under the Sun in his spotty bag !

 

[Jaws]

Vans like that which are up for sale worry me.... a lot
There is only one reason someone would pay £6k for it... Cos they have the location of a pucka van that is ripe for nicking and being the subject of a cloning exercise

 

[RubyOptics]

Wack I shall be reporting you to Jim for this. How dare you post such a tempting and lovely looking vehicle, then go to the trouble of including all the beautiful pictures of a dream machine such as this, and then NOT give me the phone number to bite his hand off to secure this marvel before some other savvy buyer such as myself snatches it up. You Sir, are a cad and a bounder of the first order.

So he's selling a Renault master shell and a couple of mattresses

 

[Just smiffy]

Bargain.... I’m going to buy it and use it as a shed, (you seen the price of sheds lately!)
The bonus is, is that it’s already full of crap...

 

[busbuddy]

I wonder what he will part-ex it in for if it dont sell

 

[Janine]

Two pints of lager and a bag of crisps?

How many weeks would it be for?
2?

 

[John.]

Blast!
I knew I should have bought a lottery ticket.

 

[Lenny HB]

Friend and neighbour had a year 2000 Crafter he had self converted and it was a pretty bad conversion, 3 years ago he decided to buy a real van. We had a chat reckoned if he got £2000 he would be doing really well. Sold on ebay for over £5000.
I've got him fully converted now he's just taken delivery of a new Carthago.

Advert has been updated !
He is now saying the £5,995 is the new lower price as he has knocked £3k off
Knoch the odd £5000 and it might sell ok

I had a pillar drill for sale on e-bay --got some stupid offers inc one who wanted to meet "half way to view it " (100 mile round trip !) .When listing ended I put it back on for an extra £30..ended up selling it.

 

[ManTheVan]

I haven’t laughed so much in ages...the guy ought to be negotiating the Brexit trade deal...

On Facebook a woman put a picture up of a box for a current HD recorder £50
I offered £50 ,then I get a message with a picture of one about 5 years old

it’s not that one we‘re selling it’s this one

ok what model number is it

sorry I don’t know

so you’ve put a picture up of something that’s not for sale and you can’t tell me what actually is for sale , I’m ooot

 

[Swifter]

To be fair to the bloke . He does state you could use it as storage or a Man Cave . I am sure a garden shed or log cabin would be slightly cheaper

BUY NOW ! I might change my mind

 

[Swifter]

If the OP is happy I think we should all add our own gems to this thread to keep this going

 

[bobnick]

I could be interested as i want to upgrade my 2018 Autotrail Imala.

 

[ManTheVan]

It looks so bright and dry inside. I’m sure our local bat population would love it if it doesn’t sell...

 

[ManTheVan]

The payload will also be excellent if there’s no engine.
